XoftSpy AntiVirus Pro (formerly XoftSpySE) Description

XoftSpySE is a security tool which helps your computer stay away from most malicious files out there, be they spyware, worms, keyloggers, adware tools and other such infections.Extensive Help and simple-to-handle GUIAlthough designed to scan your computer and check the registry, memory and all files stored on the hard disks, XoftSpySE can always be used by beginners as well, as the interface is quite straightforward and user friendly. In addition, there's also a detailed help file that describes every single feature of the application, which means novice users should encounter no problems. Types of scans and actions you can take XoftSpySE provides three different scanning modes, namely “Full Scan”, “Quick Scan” and “Custom Scan.” In addition to that, the program includes a dedicated tool to schedule scans for a later date, so that you can easily avoid stressing up the computer while you are working on it. Depending on the dangerous items that the program finds on your computer, there are two available options, namely clean and ignore. While the first one removes the alert altogether, ignoring a file moves it to a separate menu that comprises all files supposed to be skipped in the upcoming scans. Customize parameters and manage startup programs The “Settings” menu is minimal and hosts just a few general options, as well as dedicated preferences for the custom scans, thus letting you choose the items to be scanned. Last but not least, the utility also boasts two additional tools, a “Startup Editor” to manage the applications that run at computer boot up and a “BHO Editor” to get rid of unnecessary add-on installed on your browser. Conclusion and performance A good thing about this piece of software is the fact that it works fast without hampering the computer’s performance, yet you should know it seems to skip some of the files stored on the local hard disks. While it checks the processes, registry, system folders, Windows HOSTS file and the selected folders, archives are not included in the scan. All in all, XoftSpySE is a smart pick in the security software market, yet a few improvements in some key areas are a must in the near future.
