Spyware is invisible to you, to anti-virus software and to firewalls. It reports your every move to advertisers and hackers. Adware throws pop-ups onto your screen even when you're not surfing. This software often can't be uninstalled or turned off.
Companies and hackers use technology to invade your privacy. You need the tools to fight back.
Catch Everything
Spyware comes in many forms and hides in many places. SpyCatcher 3.5 recognizes tens of thousands of spyware programs in 37 different categories. SpyCatcher scans your hard drive, other disks, network drives, system registry and memory to find hidden and active spyware. You have full control over where and for what SpyCatcher searches.
Running A Search
When you run a SpyCatcher search, you'll see where SpyCatcher is searching. If any spyware is found, it will appear in the search screen immediately. You can always pause the search for a later time, or stop it completely.
Doing Your Homework
You probably don't know what spyware programs do or how they work -- nor should you have to. Whenever spyware is found, you can use SpyCatcher's online database to read all about it. SpyCatcher gives you a threat assessment, a description of how the spyware can affect you, even where the spyware could have come from.
With SpyCatcher's online database, you always know what you're up against.
Always Safe
SpyCatcher only detects files that are truly spyware, so you can feel comfortable disabling anything SpyCatcher finds. But if you later decide you want the spyware back (some free products will only let you use them if associated advertising software is installed), you can use SpyCatcher's history feature to replace everything that was removed.
Protection from the Worst
Many of the most common spyware programs aggressively reinstall themselves if they are disabled or deleted. This defeats almost all measures to deactivate them.
SpyCatcher uses an advanced technology called Reinstall Shield. The Reinstall Shield overwrites spyware files when your computer first starts and then locks those files, preventing them from being replaced and reactivated. This defeats even the most sophisticated spyware.
ProtectionSpyCatcher's Protector feature keeps a vigilant eye on your computer at all times, even when SpyCatcher isn't running. It scans your memory for running spyware, so it can alert you immediately if new spyware is installed. It also protects Internet Explorer's pages, like your homepage and search page, from being hijacked.
Protector is a silent, strong countermeasure against spies.
Phishing Protection
NEW in version 3.5, SpyCatcher uses patent-pending technology to protect you from 'Phishing' scams which try to trick you into entering confidential information into a 'spoof' site. Instead of using unreliable blacklists to detect phishing sites, SpyCatcher compares the forgery with the actual site in real-time and warns you if you are at risk.
With this feature, you may enter sensitive information into forms with confidence.
Stops Persistent Infection
Spyware is evolving increasingly advanced ways to escape detection and deletion. Some spyware today is able to hide in areas of your operating system that make it impossible to access while the PC is running normally.
SpyCatcher's Parachute feature boots your computer in Windows' Safe Mode in order to access these rogue programs and delete them, leaving you with a completely clean machine.
For Advanced Users
If you're an advanced computer user, you'll enjoy SpyCatcher's Detective. The Detective lets you explore everything that's running on your computer, even hidden programs. It even gets the manufacturer's information for these programs and lets you search the web for more information on them.
You can also disable or remove programs in the Detective with one click. And you can recover them using SpyCatcher's history.
Stops Browser Hijackers - For Good
All PCs contain a host file which is what all browsers look for when directed to a URL. Some spyware rewrites these host files to direct browsers to other sites that they choose - typically, to stop the user from visiting known anti-spyware company Web sites, or redirect the user to pay-per-view pages. After installation, SpyCatcher's Host File Analyzer repairs the host file and blocks any future unauthorized attempts to rewrite it.
Making it Easy
SpyCatcher comes with its own scheduler, which lets you set it up to scan your computer automatically whenever you wish. SpyCatcher also downloads updates to its database automatically, and free of charge. As new spyware, adware and other threats to your privacy are released, SpyCatcher keeps up to speed.
You're always protected with SpyCatcher.
