Yes No. Cons: It took a while to scan my entire system. Overall Review: The gamer mode function is nice. That said, Spy Sweeper's remains one of the better antispyware apps we tested.
In exclusive testing by CNET Labs, Spy Sweeper's active shields identified and blocked seven out of eight spyware samples we attempted to install, missing only one generic Trojan, Compare-prices. For scanning and removing existing spyware samples, Spy Sweeper's caught six out of eight.
As for the removal itself, in a majority of the cases Spy Sweeper left some spyware residue behind, removing only three of the eight samples, creating the possibility that some of the sample spyware could reinstall itself. This last criteria sunk Spy Sweeper's overall performance score. Webroot says Spy Sweeper removes only as much of the potential spyware as necessary to disable it, but we found competing antispyware apps removed all traces of some of the same samples that Webroot chose to leave behind, so that argument didn't wash.
Support Webroot supports Spy Sweeper by providing online FAQs, a e-mail trouble ticket, and toll-free live telephone support located within the country of the caller Webroot is particularly proud of this fact. All technical support through Webroot is free for registered users.
Conclusion While we applaud Webroot's decision to partner with the premier antivirus vendor Sophos, we question the decision to rush the Spy Sweeper 5. And we had trouble with the number of traces left behind by Spy Sweeper, traces that were easily removed by competing products. Finally, Spy Sweeper took the longest duration to scan more potential spyware than the faster, lighter competition. We look forward to version 6. Robert Vamosi. Webroot Spy Sweeper 5.
