Ad-Aware Pro is an all-round security package, protecting you against viruses, worms, rootkits, keyloggers and a wide range of Internet spyware. Thanks to the intuitive user interface this is ideal software for both beginners as well as more advanced users, offering a wealth of professional features to customise your security measures.

Top performance and instant protection

As soon as you turn your PC on Ad-Aware Pro starts working in the background and blocks harmful processes, as well as foreign programmes from the Internet. Thanks to the heuristic-based, proactive Genotype virus recognition, both the latest and potential viruses which haven’t even been developed are recognised and sent directly to the quarantine area. Ad-Aware Pro utilises minimal system resources to complete its tasks, enabling you to complete other tasks on your PC at the same time. The Pro version offers a “do not disturb” mode, so as not to disturb you during video viewing or presentations, but still offer extensive background protection.

The professional touch

The professional version of Ad-Aware’s comprehensive software includes additional features such as expert versions of its rootkit scanner and Ad-Watch Live!, and a comprehensive toolbox including Process Watch, showing a detailed view of running processes, AutoStart Manager for managing programmes initiated on startup, thus streamlining your PC’s performance, Hosts File Editor for safer, more controllable web navigation, and ThreatWork, offering an immediate Ad-Aware scan by right-clicking an object / file.

Long-lasting, effective protection

Regular Internet updates constantly provide your PC with the most current anti-virus protection. The extended deletion tool “The Neutralizer” ensures that viruses already combated don’t reinstall themselves when you restart your PC. IF your PC is connected to your home or work network, use Ad-Aware Pro to scan and protect all connected drives from viruses and other intruders.

Easy to regulate system settings

The protection mechanism of Ad-Aware Pro can be adjusted according to your exact needs. Choose when automatic system checks should be carried out and how intensively the programme should look for harmful intruders according to all your other programme settings. The virus hunter deletes personal information from your Internet browser and can also search for particularly well-hidden rootkits.
