Adware is a form of malware that can be installed on your computer without you knowing. It can then monitor you to find out what you are searching for and display ads related to the search results. This can result in an overwhelming amount of ads that can be very distracting and slow your computer. It can also pose serious security health, privacy, and security risks. Adware is also able to steal your data and sell it to advertisers.

The company behind Adaware is Lavasoft that has been in operation for a long time and has developed legitimate antivirus software solutions. It is a simple installation and doesn’t demand that you uninstall your current antivirus. Once it’s installed, you can run a fast full or custom scan from the main dashboard and execute product updates.

There are three plans to choose from with adaware: free, Pro and Total. The free plan offers real-time protection as well as download protection but does not include ad blocking. The Pro version is more robust and comes with unlimited tech support, web and email protection and a strong firewall. It also comes with a digital lock, a parental control and a file shredder.

Ad-aware could block 95.4 percent of AV-Comparatives’ real-world protection tests but only 97% of zero-day tests. These results might seem impressive, but they are not that impressive when compared to other top-rated antiviruses in the market. Both the Pro and Total versions of this antivirus come with a 30-day money back guarantee.
