TrueWatch Reviewer's Comments



TrueWatch is an average Spyware/Adware detection and deletion program. You do get some control of the Express scan and the Custom scan; everything else is an automated process.

We could not find any information about TrueWatch's compatibility with Windows Vista.


Ease of Setup/Use:  

TrueWatch has a basic anti-spyware feature set. It removes adware / spyware, dialer software and keyloggers. It also has rollback capabilties if you change your mind about something. There is a one-click update feature as well. In addtion, TrueWatch provides you with the ability to specify additional suspected programs, block ActiveX downloads, tracking cookies for IE or harmful downloads.


Detection Effectiveness:  

TrueWatch finds an average amount of spyware components. Once the component is found, you may double-click it to get a very brief description of the component. Then you can choose to Ignore it, Remove it, or disable it and back it up in "Quarantine".


Removal Effectiveness:  

TrueWatch is easy to use. It's not the prettiest interface we've seen but it works.


System Performance:  

There are only a few customization options. You can either scan with the Express scan or the Custom scan. Express Scan scans your memory, cookies and parts of the registry to find spyware/adware on your system. Custom Scan allows you to choose what will be scanned, including all of your hard drives.


Scan Performance:  

TrueWatch is very easy to get set up; one quick download, then automatic installation begins.


Support/Documentation:  

There is a small help file in the product that will give you some information regarding use its features. There is also a step-by-step guide with screenshots to help you from start to finish. If you need additional help, you can contact customer support thorugh email.


Summary:  

TrueWatch is an average Spyware/Adware detection and deletion program. If you want limited functionality and customization and want to save a few bucks, this might work well for you.
