San Diego, CA (PRWEB) December 29, 2005 -- TrekEight,
LLC announced SpywareNuker XT, its fourth-generation anti-spyware
software, now featuring Active Protection. Previously available
only in TrekEight’s professional-level INAC line, the
latest iteration of the SpywareNuker series brings this critical
protection to the home desktop user.
"SpywareNuker XT is, in many ways, the
most significant release ever in the SpywareNuker line,”
commented Chief Technical Officer Bojan Gajic. “With
the addition of Active Protection to SpywareNuker, it becomes
one of only a very few solutions to offer this essential protection.
Spyware and adware have become more sophisticated both in
activity and installation methodology, and SpywareNuker XT
is keeping up!”
Unlike most anti-spyware programs that only
clean an infection after it has infiltrated the user’s
PC, SpywareNuker XT offers “always-on” protection
at the kernel level. This means that it works to prevent the
infection from ever occurring in the first place. Of course,
previous infections can still be easily detected, cleaned
and repaired by SpywareNuker XT.
About spyware and adware: Though usually used
for marketing purposes, (such as tracking the websites you
visit and the items that you buy online and then directing
advertisements to you), spyware can have the capability to
record your credit card number, personal identification numbers,
and all of your passwords. Recent studies have claimed that
as many as 9 out of every 10 PC's contains installed adware
or spyware of some kind.
SpywareNuker allows users who think they might
be infected with spyware or adware to check their computer
free of charge by visiting http://www.nuker.com.
Questionable programs and applications are listed with a brief
description of functionality, and users are given the option
of utilizing the SpywareNuker XT program to assist in removing
the program(s) if the users are not comfortable doing so themselves.
Additionally, for a limited time, purchasers of SpywareNuker
XT will be given a free copy of INAC Identity Defender, our
leading anti-phishing software designed to keep users safe
from the “phishing”schemes that are becoming increasingly
prevalent.
Chief Technical Officer Bojan Gajic concluded,
"SpywareNuker XT is still designed above all for ease
of use and to offer maximum protection to the user who doesn't
have time to master the intricate process of working with
the PC's registry. SpywareNuker XT is a simple, comprehensive
and effective solution for anyone, from the beginner to the
advanced user, looking to increase their defenses against
unwanted adware or tracking programs."
SpywareNuker XT is part of the Nuker line of
desktop security programs, including ErrorNuker Registry Cleaner,
EvidenceNuker Privacy Program, and the upcoming HackerNuker
Software Firewall.
