Who needs Spy Sweeper?
Webroot strongly believes spyware protection software, like anti-virus and
firewall software, is essential for all Internet connected PCs. You're at
increased risk of spyware infection if you:
- Share files like music or photos with other users.
- Download freeware or shareware applications.
- Share your computer with other users.
- Spend more than five hours online each week.
How does Spy Sweeper protect you from spyware?
Spy Sweeper scans your entire system using a database of thousands of known
spyware threats.
- Spy Sweeper owners receive seamless updates to new spyware definitions to
ensure ongoing protection from new threats, which emerge daily.
- Spy Sweeper quarantines any files or file traces that match the threat
database. Quarantining disables spyware functionality for immediate protection,
while giving you the option to review and permanently delete suspect files or
safely restore them if they are essential to the operation of desirable
applications.
- Spy Sweeper actively monitors and protects your system memory, home page and
new cookie additions to provide proactive safeguards.
Powerful Detection, Quarantine and Deletion
Spy Sweeper protects you with a sophisticated database of spyware
definitions, the power to disable spyware, and the knowledge you need to analyze
your risks. Disable and store spyware in a safe place on your system until you
decide whether or not to remove them permanently. This unique approach lets you
manage spyware without harming other programs on your computer.
Spy Sweeper Knowledge Base
Right-click on a specific spy in the Quarantined, Always Keep, or Always
Remove screens for instant access to the Spy Sweeper knowledge base. Now you
have the knowledge to decide what programs you want running on your computer
including:
- the category of spyware (adware, keylogger, Trojan, etc.)
- program capabilities
- methods of infection (freeware download, drive-by download, third-party
installation, etc.)

- recommended action
Simple and Easy-to-use
One-click starts sweeping for covert spyware on your system, providing
powerful protection to novice and power users alike.
