Anti-spyware software protects identity and PC security
Catches known and new, yet-to-be-defined threat variants
Product DescriptionDon't trust your spyware protection to just anyone. Spyware Doctor has consistently been awarded Editors' Choice, by leading PC magazines and testing laboratories around the world, including United States, United Kingdom, Sweden, Germany and Australia. Did you know that many programs tested against Spyware Doctor detected only a small fraction of Spyware and only completely removed an even smaller amount? Also most of them were unable to effectively block Spyware in real time from being installed on users PC in the first place. Spyware Doctor's advanced OnGuard technology only alerts you on a true Spyware detection. You should not be interrupted by cryptic questions every time you install software, add a site to your favorites or change your PC settings. Such messages can be confusing and may result in undesirable outcomes such as program errors, lost favorites or even spyware being allowed to install on the system.

This thing can really bog down your computer. Check "Windows Task Manager" and you will see Spy Doctor's pvtsSvc.exe program pushing the CPU usage to 100% a lot of the time.

I haven't had issues with this product. I use Spyware Doctor, Registry Mechanic and Kaspersky Anti Virus on a Windows Vista PC. At one point Kaspersky Anti Virus was attacked and disabled the program completely, but Spyware Doctor was able to catch it from causing any further damage to my computer. Not sure why people are having issues with the program? I'm sure it has it's flaws...I used to use Norton and McAfee but those slowed down my computer.
Rating: - I should get paid for installing this
I had used the free version before (a long time ago) and found that it was a really effective spyware remover, and I was recently looking to find a new anti-spyware as well as an anti-vorus software since I didn't had any; and I ended up with Spyware Doctor With Antivirus.
I also installed their free firewall, which is a whole different story (you have to disable it whenever you want to run certain programs, or your computer will freeze up).
On the first reboot of the computer, ... Read More

I have never bought any product from PC tools BUT a 360 dollar charge showed up on my debit card with no warning at all. Now I have to spend a week getting a new card and take a hit to my credit as it caused my account to overdraft. I hate these people and will never buy a product from them.
Rating: - Good once, bad five times
Spyware Doctor has had glowing reviews, so I tried it. On my computer it runs flawlessly. No slowdown at all. On my suggestion, five other people bought it and all--that is every one of them--had their computers slow down so much that they almost seemed locked.
Click an icon and a minute or so later, it responds. I could hardly believe it. I checked all five, and all had the same problem. Enable "Intelligard" and you are walking in frozen molasses. Turn off Intelligard, and you're ... Read More
