Overview

The good:
  • Ad-Aware 2007 has finally updated its interface.
The bad:
  • Ad-Aware 2007 doesn't offer antivirus protection, and it doesn't detect or remove spyware in CNET Labs' tests.
The bottomline:

Spyware has evolved rapidly over the last few years, but Ad-Aware 2007 seems slow and has fallen behind the times.

Editors’ rating:

6.2/10

RRP: AU$34.00
