The best Spyware remover

Advantages: Lots of security features, regular updates
Disadvantages: None

...This is an excellent efficient and very handy piece of software which is currently available free as part of the Google pack. PC Tools is becoming a much more efficient and reliable company name in my experience and opinion. Spyware and adware are everywhere these days and it's an even bigger problem than viruses, which is why you need to have an efficient reliable and stable spyware remover to deal with it effectively. I'm pretty sure that PC Tools used to offer a free and a paid version of this program and I think that the free download as part of the Google pack is actually the paid version with limitations, such as the active protection shield being limited in spyware that it blocks but is upgradable at a fee. With Spyware Doctor you can choose to do either a quick scan, called an Intelli-scan or a full scan on your computer...

Review of Spyware Doctor

Spyware Doctor & Me

Advantages: Fast, reliable and accurate.
Disadvantages: Slow to start back up whenever closed down.

...As designed by PC Tools, Spyware Doctor is truly a unique program offering the user real-time virus, spyware and scam protection while also continually scanning and updating to prevent the aforementioned infections. I purchased my copy directly of PC Tools' website for $39.95 (£19.87). This package included Spyware Doctor for Windows and an optional $10 upgrade to a version with virus protection as well. I was very impressed with the download time - only about 2 minutes (and I only have a 2MB connection). The installation process was also pretty straight forward. After installation had completed, I entered my serial number and away it went. I was very impressed with the way it took over all my computers security needs as soon as installation had finished. It started by downloading a 'SmartUpdate' which consists of all the latest...

So long Spyware!

Advantages: Good Spyware Detection, Easy to Use
Disadvantages: Free at the moment, may have to pay for it in the future!

...distribution but may still have bugs/problems, and they sometimes require feedback should you discover a fault or should you experience problems with it. Microsoft recommend if you experience problems since installing it, remove the software and if problems persist, use 'System Restore' to go back to your system setup before you installed the product. ~ Spyware is basically a piece of software installed on your PC, generally without your knowledge (and usually without permission!) that aims to collect personal information from your browsing habits. Sometimes even user names and passwords that you use to log in to various sites! Some believe you are more prone to attracting Spyware from 'file-sharing' music download sites, as well as 'free software download' sites or gaming sites. Sometimes you can tell if your PC has been infected because you...

Review of Microsoft Anti-Spyware Beta

Spyware Removal made Easy

Advantages: Spyware removal, keeps your system free from most known invasions
Disadvantages: Can take an age to run on a large hard disk although it is worth it and it will run in the background

...SPYWARE - A phrase we are now all too familiar with. Remove it from your system and keep it protected with Ad-Aware. Recently released is Version 5.7 Pro, there are free versions of this spyware removal tool available, but I recommend buying the full Pro Version for optimum protection of your personal data. Firstly a bit about spyware itself. I have written several articles on Ciao about this hidden enemy lurking on your computer. It comes in many forms and in many guises. Its purpose though is the same. To feed back to others information about yourself, your surfing habits and, in some cases, to STEAL data from your computer. It is a big threat, second only to Viral invasions of your system but it?s presence can be just as damaging. The newest threat to computer users is that of CYDOOR, a spyware program which latches itself...

Review of Lavasoft Ad-Aware 5

remover

Advantages: gets it off
Disadvantages: slowly

...This nail polish remover costs just over £1 which i suppose isnt bad for a large bottle like this but i dont think it is very good, dont get me wrong it will remove your nail varnish but it realy does struggle. My nails were painted a dark plum colour, it had began to chip a bit at the ends of the nails and looked horrid so i brought this nail polish remover to get the rest of it off. The bottle has a screw on lid which obviously you have to open, then i put a piece of cotton wool on the top of the bottle and tiped it quickly upside down and then right side up again there was a circle of nail polish remover on my cotton wool. I rubbed the coton wool up and down my thumb nail and could see the plum colour coming off onto the cotton wool, it was removing it. After doing this the coton wool was covered i plum nail varnish but...

Review of Sainsburys Nail Polish Remover

Removes the stains, allgedly

Advantages: easy to use
Disadvantages: only works 50% of the time...

...dust was removed. I can only assume the two differences are down to the type of stain or the type of carpet. The carpet which didn't work is shortpile and quite thin compared to the one which worked very well. I can't really work out whether I like this product or not. It has definitely worked on one of my carpets and it was easier to use than sprays which take lots of effort to keep pumping the lever and then having to use a separate cloth to scrub into the carpet. It was however quite messy and not very easy to use for someone with small hands. I have given this product 3 stars as it has definitely done the job it said it would on one of the two carpets at least and I did prefer it to other brands I have used. I am, however, disappointed that it didn't work on both. I paid £4.99 for this and I'm not sure how long it will...

Review of 1001 Mousse Spot Stain Remover

Nair Hair Removal

Advantages: Removes some hair, leaves your skin soft
Disadvantages: Doesnt remove all hairs, Smells bad, Costs alot for one hair removal session

...About I absolutely hate having to take the time to shave my legs, but like almost every other girl in this country its a job that needs to be done, because of my lazyness towards this task I decided to try Nair Sensitive Hair Removal Cream. Price It wasn't cheap to buy at around £6 per bottle which if you think about it is £6 for one shave compared to shaving cream and razors which will last you many shaves. The Smell This cream didn't smell very nice and when I had applied it I was hesitant to keep it on for any longer than the recommended time. Applying Applying this cream wasn't hard and didn't take a long time. You simply apply it to your skin and follow the simple instructions contained that are inside the box. The Results Ok so this cream worked on the thinner hairs of my legs, but the courser ones, which...

Review of Nair Sensitive Hair Remover

A Wart Remover For Wimps!

Advantages: Removes Warts Painlessly
Disadvantages: Quite Expensive, Can Take Several Weeks To Work

...? Compound W is a specially formulated solution used to treat Warts. It comes in a small plastic bottle containing 6.5ml of liquid, with an applicator that looks a bit like an eye drop. Warts are areas of hard, dry growths on the skin. They are usually harmless but can be quite itchy and they are very unsightly. They can also spread quite easily too, to other areas of the skin or onto other people. These type of Warts on the Skin are known as Plantar Warts and they are caused by a virus called "Papiloma" which is the same virus that causes Genital Warts and has also been linked to Cervical Cancer. Compound W should only ever be used on Plantar Warts, it must never be used on Genital Warts. The Compound W solution is a thick yellow coloured liquid with a very strong smell. Acetone, which is one of main ingredients in Nail Varnish remover...

Review of Compound W Liquid Wart Remover

Dettol Mould & Mildew Remover - It really works!!

Advantages: No scrubbing involved and it really works!
Disadvantages: None

...Every now and then a product comes along that actually does what it promises to do - unlike Cillit bang in my opinion! Dettol Mould and Mildew remover is one of these products that really does work. I first bought this a couple of years back when after spending ages scrubbing small mould marks from my bathroom using various products, I came across this on the supermarket shelves, and bought a bottle. I was so impressed, I have continued to buy it ever since. The price varies as it is sometimes on offer, but I have just paid £2.79 in Morrisons for a large 750ml bottle. I have bought 500ml bottles for under £2.00 previously, but not sure if they are still making these as only the large bottle was on the shelf and it states 'Bigger pack, better value' on the front of the bottle. Dettol Mould & Mildew Remover comes in a plastic bottle...

Review of Dettol mould & mildew remover

Hair removal heaven!

Advantages: Smooth legs, no pain like when shaving, cheap!
Disadvantages: Can take a while to do.

...I unfortunately suffer with extremely sensitive skin and to just shave my legs can be dreadfully painful and leave them red raw; not very attractive to be honest, therefore I have been in search of a hair removal method that isn't quite so painful and that doesn't make my legs look as blotchy. So when I came across the Silkymit gloves I was pretty much willing to try anything and bought a pack to test out. Now I came across these in a Wilkinsons store for just 79p, but I have seen them in plenty of other shops, such as Boots, Superdrug and most leading supermarkets, but obviously the price varies for each one and I think that Wilkinsons has been the cheapest so far. They come in sets of 3 in packaging roughly about the size of a CD case and have instructions printed clearly on the back. Each Silkymit fits on your hand like a glove...
