Often, (Being a software freak) When I check out what I’ve installed or not…there are a lot of crazy things jumping up & down specially in my Startup Menu. Then, curiosity strikes and do the Run / MsConfig and when I click startup I mostly want to grab my keyboard and bang the crap out of those softwares. Well, recently I came across Winpatrol which was the savior!
It monitors your computer and does not allow applications to simply add themselves to the startup menu or associate files to themselves. It catches everything and pops up a notification if I want to go with the modifications that those spy softwares are making! It will alert you to Spyware, Adware, & nasty programs that may infiltrate your computer without your knowledge, thus, enabling me to take control of my computer!
Another good thing about WinPatrol is that it’s also a security tool that protect you from worms, trojan, cookies, adware, spyware while using a heuristic approach to detecting attacks and violations of your computing environment.
Features:
- Increase Your Speed & System Performance
- Detect & Neutralize Spyware. Detect & Neutralize ADware
