Webroot Spy Sweeper

Spyware has eclipsed viruses as the fastest growing online threat, infecting nearly 90% of Internet connected PCs. Spyware can infect your system in many different ways: visiting a spy-spreading web site, opening a spy-carrying email attachment, downloading a spy as part of another (often "free") software program, etc. Your privacy, and even your identity, is at high risk if you surf the Internet more than one hour a week, share your computer or use file-sharing programs like KaZaa. Traditional anti-virus programs and firewalls don't offer protection from invasive and harmful spyware programs that can manifest themselves in many ways on your PC. New from Webroot, the leader in privacy protection, Spy Sweeper safely detects and removes more traces of spyware than any other program including; Trojans, adware, keyloggers and system monitoring tools (e.g. Gator, Xupiter, Backorifice and more).

Smart Protector

Smart Protector is a software program that cleans all the tracks of your Internet activity.

  • Clear History of your Internet Explorer stored on your hard drive with SP!
  • Clear your Temporary Internet Files (cache)!
  • Internet Cookies - They are small pieces of information that your browser stores on your local hard disc. Web sites use them to track your preferences or Internet habits.
  • Forms AutoComplete lists possible matches from entries you've typed in before like Google search phrases, user names, etc. Use this Internet Cleaner to clear them all!
  • Index.dat files - Those evil index.dat files - no matter how many of them you have.
  • Location Bar - The drop down URL list from IE and URL Autocomplete. This will prevent other people to find out where you have been by typing www.x for example and see www.xxx.com
  • Home Page - Some sites set your homepage so that every time you start Internet Explorer it will automatically go to their page. SP - Internet Cleaner can restore your previous home page or optionally set it to blank page.
  • Recent documents list - The list of all the documents and files you have been recently working on accessible from the Start button. Use this Internet Cleaner to clear them all!
  • Recycle bins - Use this Internet Cleaner to clear them all!
  • Save State/Restore State - The most interesting feature of Smart Protector is the Save State/Restore State capability. It enables you to leave the computer in exactly the same state as it was, so that no one could understand you have used such a program. Clear history and other tracks you've left after the last "save state"!
  • Configuration - Internet Cleaner also supports custom configuration of all the options. For example you can choose to clear History and Internet cookies only or Typed URLs and URL Autocomplete but erase everything else. It's very easy - just check or uncheck the options in the 'Settings' window.
  • Schedule - You can schedule your tasks in order to prevent the possibility of forgetting to use the program thus minimizing the danger for you. That feature of this very easy to use program makes it a program that you only have to trigger once. Schedule includes 3 options: Run at Startup; Run at the end of your Internet activity (the last IE closed) and Run on shutdown Windows.
  • Stealth Mode - When you use the schedule you are confident that everything will be erased without visualizing the program. Only you will know what's going on.
  • Cookie Manager - Internet Eraser Pro includes an integrated Cookie Manager (you receive it for free). You can decide which cookies to keep and which to erase. This is useful as some of these files keep information that helps you browse more easily sites that you use often and trust.
  • Emergency key - This is very useful when you get caught with several open Internet Explorer windows by your wife, kids or your boss. Just press Ctrl+Alt+Z and you are safe. All Internet Explorers will be closed and all the tracks will be erased in a stealth mode. Everything will be OK.
  • Recent files for specific programs - Recently used files are not kept only by the operating system they are stored by some of the programs that use them as well. Someone starting your favorite player or graphical program can see the last picture you have watched (do you remember it) or the last movie. Smart Protector Pro erases the recent files list for most popular programs such as Windows Media Player, Real Player, ACDSee, Google toolbar etc.
  • Home page protection - Sometimes malicious web sites change your home page to their own page with commercial purpose. This is very aggressive and rather annoying. It is very useful for you to be able to restore your preferred home page or set it blank. Your home page will be restored every time when an erase operation has been performed.

WinLock

WinLock is a comprehensive security solution for personal or publicly accessible computers. It is a program that ensures that only authorized people can access sensitive information on your computer. With WinLock you can control how long others can use your computer. It runs from the system tray and requires a password to gain access to the available settings. It loads automatically with Windows and allows you to add an optional startup message, provide audio notification, and set the time limit. Once that limit is reached, Windows is summarily shut down. You can toggle the timer on and off from the tray. When enabled, there is no way around it without the proper password. WinLock also allows to disable Windows hot keys (such as Alt-Ctrl-Del, Alt-Tab, Ctrl-Esc, etc.), lock Windows desktop, customize Start menu, hide Start button and Switch bar, and much more...
