Pros: Easy to install and use. Doesn't cause trouble.
Cons: Only a one year subscription for $30. It's kinda steep.
The Bottom Line: Recommend for those people that have spyware/ad-ware problems. Look for a sale however, because $30 is a bit steep for only one years use.

| deyounte's Full Review: Webroot Spy Sweeper 2.0 Full Version for PC |
I had tried out the trial version previously and decided when I purchased a new computer for my family for Christmas, that I wanted to have a little protection to go with it.
I love the ability to schedule it to run periodically. It has removed a great deal from my system and the registry protection that it comes with has been handy on many occasions. I've had to manually remove some programs a few times that were identified as suspect by my anti-virus program using this feature. However, on at least one occasion a suspect program was apparently running in memory as I could see it put itself right back into the registry in real-time as I removed it. Luckily the parent program that installed it, also came with an uninstall program that finally put a stake in the heart of that little gremlin.
I would recommend this program. If Webroot was to ask me what else I would like to see in the program I would have to answer that I'd like to see some more information regarding the program and data file updates. I'd like to see build versions and dates displayed somewhere so that I could gauge how up-to-date is my spy/ad-ware remover application.
