REDWOOD CITY, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/22/11 -- Support.com® SUPERAntiSpyware® 5, the first major update in two years of the popular anti-malware software, is wowing experts in reviews who are touting it as an excellent product that augments malware and spyware detection, removal and protection on PCs. In related news, the company also announced that NASDAQ has purchased 4,000 licenses of SUPERAntiSpyware 5.
Support.com (NASDAQ: SPRT), a leading provider of cloud-based technology services and software, announced SUPERAntiSpyware 5 on August 2nd. Lighter, more powerful and easier to use, SUPERAntiSpyware 5 delivers faster scanning, improved real-time protection, more powerful scheduling, more in-depth logging, and tighter Windows® integration.
In its review of SUPERAntiSpyware 5, Notebooks.com said, "If you need help in keeping malware off your computer, or need to remove malware, SUPERAntiSpyware 5 is a good solution."
More praise comes from AntiVirusreviews.com reviewer Jacob Erdei who wrote, "All in all it's (SUPERAntiSpyware 5) a great malware detection tool. This will make a GREAT secondary scanner and line of protection for your computer. The price is right and I will personally be using this client going forward to run secondary scans on my computer to ensure I'm malware and virus free."
eSecurity Planet in its review said, "Cool new features, a better UI, and less of system hog, SUPERAntiSpyware 5 is definitely worth a look." Reviewer Eric Greier also added that, "After my review of the main features and functionality of SUPERAntiSpyware 5, I recommend it."
As no single security solution is enough, SUPERAntiSpyware 5 was designed to complement rather than replace existing security applications. SUPERAntiSpyware provides a powerful layer of defense against spyware, adware, Trojans, worms, keyloggers, rootkits, hijackers, bots, dialers and other malware.
Supporting that product mission is Ghacks.net, who in its review said, "While it is possible to install and use SUPERAntiSpyware as the main defense against malicious software on a Windows PC, it is used by the majority of users as a second layer of defense against those threats."
Ghacks.net continued, "Unlike most security software, it can be run on the same system as traditional antivirus solutions without ill-effects like slowdowns, crashes or false positives. Both the free and paid version of SUPERAntiSpyware 5 are great additions to a system's defense."
SUPERAntiSpyware 5, which boasts 30 million users worldwide, comes in two versions: SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition offers excellent malware detection and removal; SUPERAntiSpyware Professional Edition adds critically important real-time protection, automatic definition updates, and scheduled scanning capabilities. The professional edition is available as a fully-functional 15-day trial and for purchase directly. Both versions may be downloaded from www.SUPERAntiSpyware.com.
