Publisher's description of SpyCatcher Express
SpyCatcher Express protects all Web surfers by providing a safe and advanced antispyware solution. Free Scan. Free Removal. Free Forever. SpyCatcher Express protects against next-generation, complex spyware and puts users back in control of their PCs. SpyCatcher goes beyond traditional signature matching by incorporating a multi-pronged method for threat detection to ensure cutting-edge protection. Competitors typically use one detection model, preventing them from blocking the latest threats. DeepDefense prevents the installation of rootkits, removes aggressive spyware, intercepts all API calls and blocks reinstallation of aggressive spyware. Tenebril's Spyware Research Center provides detailed information on files that are deemed suspicious. Suspicious programs may be new spyware, mutations of known spyware or legitimate programs behaving contrary to their purpose or missing vendor tags.
Version 5.1 Version 5.1 features new Spyware Profiling Engine.

Version: SpyCatcher Express 5.1
"An in depth effective spyware eliminator."
Pros: It often detects spyware that other methods fail to notice.
Cons: I dont notice any improvement in the detection rate compared with the previous version. Also, this 5.1 version is more complex in its settings than before.
Summary: For a freebie, its worth having.

Version: SpyCatcher Express 5.1
"Finds nasties others cant??."
Pros: Ran Scan after installation and found 5 nasties not found by Kapersky, or Superantispyware, that surprised me. Makes me wonder if these were false positives as Kaspersky and Superantispyware are two of the best finders and removers in the market.
Cons: Stopped certain programs in their tracks to a crawl and i mean waiting 5 minutes for something to happen!!. I cant Live with that, so despite possibly finding Spyware others seemingly cant, i immediately uninstalled and program speed was normal.
Summary: Not sure on this one, as Since Using Kaspersky, and Back up Superantispyware 4.21, which is improved from the download version on your website, and can be downloaded from Super anti spywares site, I have had no nasties show up just the odd cookie, ... read more >>
