CounterSpy is a powerful anti-spyware tool that detects, deletes and protects your personal computer from a broad range of malicious software. It was chosen as PC WORLD 2005 BEST BUY, and is recommended by Dell. CounterSpy has Active Protection, the best spyware database in the industry and the fastest scan times. CounterSpy also has sophisticated protection against recurring spyware threats. Think of it as a "spy-wall" that protects you in real-time against cyber-criminals.

Remove spyware and protect your computer from pop-up ads, browser redirects (hijack), lagging performance and other malicious threats. Counterspy's Active Protection system employs dozens of online 'guards' who continually monitor your PC for suspicious software attempting to install. CounterSpy is antispyware that gets its updated spyware definitions from three sources, including our own research team, Microsoft's own spyware research group, and directly from users, like you.

Completely Rebuilt with a Revolutionary New Design
More powerful and effective than ever, CounterSpy's award-winning spyware detection and removal is now merged with our all-new VIPRE� antimalware technology to create the industry's first hybrid antispyware engine.

Get Rid of Spyware without Losing PC Performance
Older, first generation antispyware products can take forever to scan for malware and degrade PC performance. You may have tolerated these problems in the past, because you didn�t have a choice, but now you do.

Groundbreaking Technology
Now, the most menacing spyware, rootkits, and blended malware threats now have no place to hide! CounterSpy V2�s revolutionary new design offers faster, more effective spyware scans and lightweight real-time protection that removes even the deepest rooted malware from your PC.

CounterSpy V2 is the Only Antispyware with:
- Hybrid Engine. CounterSpy is powered by a hybrid engine that merges spyware detection and remediation with Sunbelt's all-new VIPRE (Virus Intrusion Protection Remediation Engine).
