XoftSpy Review
To use or not to use?
|
You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Automated definition and feature updates; easy to use;
Doesn’t offer real-time protection; poor spyware & adware detection;
For XoftSpy I could say it is pretty good product with a lot of good features. For example it runs a full PC scan: memory, registry keys, folders and files. It eliminates everything. Starting from Spyware, Adware, W32/Spybot, Pop-up Generators, Malware, Keyloggers, even to Unwelcome Toolbars, CWS, Browser Hijackers Trojans.
XoftSpy has over 45.000 registered definitions in their databases, and everyday the number is growing. It supports backup and data restore. Also protects users from identity and credit card thefts. It’s pretty easy to install, customize and use. Support for XofSpy is basic, including e-mail support and FAQ page, and you must be connected to internet to use help or support.
Although it has a lot of great features there are minuses too. First, the problem is in many cases software doesn't detect quite a lot of spywares and adwares, and it shows many false positives detects, which means that program "detected" dozen of innocent programs as spyware or adware. No real-time protection, which shoud stop syware before entering the computer. There is no pause or stop button while scanning!!??
XoftSpy provides average protection, it is easy-to-use software, but with lots of errors. It's not recommended to users with poor knowledge about computer security.
