|
| Review summary | Spybot is both free and adaptable for both beginning and power users, but it left behind several known spyware apps. | AOL 9.0 Security Edition offers free antivirus and firewall protection as part of its basic service, making it a good deal for Internet novices. | Until this recent release, Spyware Doctor was one of the better antispyware choices. Nettlesome glitches and a low rate of spyware removal, however, keep us from recommending Spyware Doctor 5 for now. | Spyware Doctor 5.1 could be more aggressive in removing all traces of found spyware. | At $20, ZoneAlarm Anti-Spyware is one of the least expensive paid antispyware option we reviewed, offers more features than other similar products, and remains one of the best. |
