The malware items that this software detects and removes go beyond spyware and adware. It removes dialers, browser hijackers, keyloggers, trojans, or parasites that hang in your web browsers and many more, including not so harmful items like tracking cookies.
SuperAntiSpyware Free is more an on-demand scan type of software since it is not offering real-time protection in the free edition. Also this antispyware works together with your antivirus, and it is not meant to replace it. Automatic updates are available only in the paid edition as well. Although the free edition has limited features, these features do a great trustworthy job.
SuperAntiSpyware Free detects and removes malware items using four scan types: Quick Scan, Complete Scan, Critical Point Scan and Custom Scan. Besides, it has scan logs and quarantine in case you change your mind about an item or something goes wrong. It is useless to describe the power beneath the scan engine because it is one of the best I have ever used. It detects everything from severe to almost harmless.
