THE CASE AGAINST SPYING

 

Big Brother Is Watching!

Your privacy is being invaded. What you are doing on your computer is being watched right now. There are companies that know you are looking at this page. They know what you typed to your family, friends and co-workers. They know what you are emailing to people. Hackers are watching to capture your credit card numbers, passwords, and other personal information.

Is your employer, spouse, significant other or an unknown criminal spying on you? It's simple for these people to install Spyware on your computer and invade your privacy. It can be installed remotely without your knowledge and then periodically send your private information by email to the owner of the Spyware.

The online world is no longer safe.

How Are They Doing It?

Spyware, Keyloggers, and Adware are being secretly installed on your computer when you install some programs from the internet. It usually comes from free software. Nothing is ever truly free. Ruthless companies are greedily cashing in on invading your privacy by installing this "scum ware". They are getting paid to include scum ware on your computer without your knowledge or permission.

Some websites can actually install software on your computer without you even knowing it. These programs record what you type, where you go, what you buy and they can even capture screenshots of your computer. They are then transmitted secretly via the internet to the perpetrators without your knowledge or permission. Frightened? You should be as this can include your usernames, passwords, credit card numbers and more things than you care to know. This has been going on for years now right under your nose, secretly. They are worse than viruses. The scariest part is, it is legal.

Reasons To Protect Yourself From Spying

• You have confidential information on your computer (bank account information, credit card information, employee records, etc.)
  

• You are suspecting your spouse is spying on your online activity.
  

• You like to cyber chat with the opposite sex, and don't want your spouse to get suspicious.
  

• You don't want others obtaining your email and internet passwords.
  

• You use personal email accounts like Hotmail and Yahoo and don't want your employer reading these emails.
  

• You don't want others seeing what pictures you look at online.
  

• You want to protect you and your family from identity thieves, credit card thieves, online stalkers and pedophiles.
  

The "Anti-Spyware" Article in the July 2003, Edition of PC World Magazine, states that Antivirus Programs combat the traditional threats of viruses, worms, and Trojan horses but do little, if anything, about Spyware installed by sneaky Websites or suspicious employers, or via software downloads.

Yet Spyware is a growing scourge: ISP Earth Link says 40% of calls to its tech support are Spyware related. It also stated that Anti-Spyware is still an infant class of software, but it is the best tool available know and that it is better to run more than one program to detect and destroy all the different types of Spyware.

Spy Sweeper 

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.

“...Spyware removal tools are as important as firewall and anti-virus packages these days.”

Konstantinos Karagiannis, "Sweeping for Spies, Improved" PC Magazine September 16, 2003

Why do you need Spy Sweeper?

Spyware infects 9 out of 10 Internet connected PCs and has eclipsed viruses as the #1 threat to online privacy.
The consequences of unidentified Spyware can include identity theft, computer corruption and bombardment from pop-up ads.

Spyware can easily bypass anti-virus and firewall protection by piggybacking on legitimate downloads to stealthily install on your system without your knowledge.

Spyware programs are deeply rooted applications that intertwine with core system functions to make manual removal without system disruption nearly impossible for most PC users.

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.

Features:

Active Shields
