There’s no question that the makers of SpyZooka believe in their program. SpyZooka guarantees that within 24 hours of downloading their product, all spyware will be blocked or removed from your computer. In addition, they offer free customer support for 1 year (which is the length of time your purchase of SpyZooka lasts), and they are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week if you have problems.

The company who manufactures SpyZooka, BluePenguin Software, created this program in order to solve problems their president Carl Haugen encountered with ineffective spyware programs. SpyZooka detects and removes a variety of issues from spyware, adware, and keyloggers to malware, hijackers, and rogue antispyware. SpyZooka also claims to deal with “any related threats,” which leads us to believe that this is one of the most complete spyware options out there.

Installation of SpyZooka is simple: you enter your e-mail address when you purchase SpyZooka, and downloading instructions are e-mailed to you immediately. If you’re interested in trying SpyZooka, their website offers you the opportunity to scan your computer free of charge. The “testimonials” section of SpyZooka’s website makes it clear that this company is all about the customer, and their commitment to helping you use your computer free of spyware and adware threats is a breath of fresh air. Purchase of SpyZooka allows you access to their “50 Internet Tips” article, which provides you with some handy information on surfing the web safely. SpyZooka is definitely a complete spyware package.

I researched this as an add-on for the security of all of our coporate locations, and found it to be a decent legitimate piece of software. I have tested way too many that generate false positives to 'scare" you into buying them. This software is straight-forward and to the point. The maker of this software should be proud..it works and works well. After a few more weeks of analysis, I may actually make this a standard software at hundreds of our locations.

Detailed Ratings

Pros

Great detection rate and a top-notch level of customer service seldom seen in this genre of technology. Good scan speed. Real-time protection. Database is updated frequently.

Cons

Requires yearly repurchase. 100 % guarantee is nice, but not really feasible, but shows their sincerity. not alot of bells and whistles, but hey...I want a tool that works...not eye candy.
