There are plenty of anti-spyware programs available, but few as comprehensive (or free) as Spyware Terminator, which is an application that will prevent spyware, adware, keyloggers and other types of malicious applications from hijacking the use of your computer. It resides in your system tray and works in real time to prevent unauthorised programs from taking over your computer.
There are others available, but many anti-spyware applications are paid-for products, primarily as the software developer has to update the anti-spyware engine on a daily basis. These developers are always fighting the latest spyware technology.
When Spyware Terminator finds a suspect file, it is moved into Quarantine. Spyware Terminator prevents them from functioning and causing further damage to your computer. You can review and choose to permanently remove suspect files or safely store essential files.
Spyware Terminator will scan your computer manually or schedule an in-depth scan to be performed on a regular basis. The scan process runs in the background so that you will not be disrupted while working on other tasks.

Problems with Spyway terminator
On downloading "Spyway Terminator" my laptop froze and could only be restarted by removing the battery. I uninstalled the programme but found it had corrupted one of my other programmes. I will not be using it again.

Spyware terminator siezed up my computer
I downloaded "Spyware terminator and found that my laptop siezed up, I could not even switch it off, the only way I could get it to work was to remove the battery then start up again. It started to work so I uninstalled it and found I could operate it again, but one of my programmes had become corrupted.

Excellent but...
I've found that it does sometimes conflict with some a/v. Therefore I've taken to installing only the on demand scanner, and that is very effective. If it's got a conflict, try that approach. It is very effective at what it does.

Blue screens with Spyware Terminator
Kept getting serious error warning and blue screens everytime laptop booted up. Seemed to be a conflict with my AVG antivirus(which I have had for years), so I have now uninstalled Spyware Terminator and so far everything is okay. Thumbs down for Spyware Terminator!!!!!!

Dangerous
Funny when I try to download this software I get a warning from Trend Micro (my internet security) that this is a dangerous site and not to download from it. Why is that?

Spyware Terminator is Tops in my books
I've tried most of the top rated commercial antispyware software & most of the free ones & I always come back to Spyware Terminator. I have yet to find another one as comprehensive & complete, none of them are without flaws including ST but I just sleep better with Spyware Terminator doing it's job. The Latest Version (2.1.1.314) makes it even better.
