PestPatrol
is a powerful security and personal privacy tool that
detects and eliminates destructive pests like trojans,
spyware, adware and hacker tools. It complements your
anti-virus and firewall software, extending your
protection against non-viral malicious software that can
evade your existing security and invade your personal
privacy.
These pests often lurk silently on your computer
until something – or someone – sets them off. When that
happens, you could lose passwords, personal data, credit
card numbers, and - if you telecommute and connect to
your office via a VPN - open up a back door for the
hacker into your entire company network.
PestPatrol defeats the threat by detecting and
removing:
-
Spyware and adware that "phones home"
information about you, your computer, and your
surfing habits
-
Remote access trojans (RATs) that allow an
attacker to remotely control your computer
-
Keystroke loggers that can steal passwords and
other confidential data
-
Denial-of-service (DoS) attack agents that can
crash or hang a program, or your entire system
- Probe tools that look for vulnerabilities on
your system that a hacker can exploit
