How CounterSpy Works CounterSpy uses an extensive spyware signature database, real-time security agents, and ThreatNet (think "neighborhood watch" for spyware), to protect your machine from many types of spyware, adware, browser hijackers, search hijackers, keyloggers, ghost spammers, spy software, and other hazardous and sometimes illegal applications and files from breaching your privacy or trying to sell you things. CounterSpy ThreatNet is a revolutionary network community of CounterSpy users who share and identify new malicious software and provides continuous threat updates to the CounterSpy spyware database. You are invited to join the ThreatNet team! • Visit the CounterSpy Research Center to review the latest research and threat information! • Read CounterSpy News to stay informed! CounterSpy Features Spyware Scans - CounterSpy scans your entire system, including in-depth scans of your computer's hard drives, memory, process, registry and cookies.

Spyware scanning can be done manually (on-demand scanning) or on a scheduled basis.
