McAfee AntiSpyware quickly detects then safely helps eliminate malicious applications - such as spyware, adware, keyloggers, remote-control programs, browser hijackers - hiding on your system before they can steal your identity, copy passwords or monitor browsing activity when you surf or shop. Erasing online roadblocks, McAfee AntiSpyware also foils adware programs that trigger annoying advertisements and sap system performance.
While anti-virus and firewall software have capabilities to help protect against spyware, only McAfee AntiSpyware detects these products as they attempt to install. Unwanted programs, including adware that often comes with peer-to-peer (P2P) applications, can be selected for quarantine and later removal. Users are given the option of "trusting" a program so that it won't be detected in future scans. In addition, McAfee AntiSpyware issues a warning when removing a program that a legitimate application may be dependent on.
