Falköping Sweden,– Nicolas Stark Computing AB (Lavasoft) announces the release of a new build for our popular and industry leading anti-trackware utility Ad-aware. Combining optimization and newly developed scanning technology, we have been able to increase the overall speed and efficiency of Ad-aware by up to 400% over previous releases of our 6x generation.

Using newly developed conditional and Smart Scan technology, Ad-aware can actually decide, based on previous detections during the scanning process, whether additional scanning is required. This innovation alone gives Ad-aware a clear advantage over other applications in our industry by using a dynamic, rather than reactive approach, for the detection of potential privacy and security threats.

Be PROACTIVE rather than REACTIVE!

As part of our continuing commitment to providing the most advanced, safest, and efficient privacy software available, we have included a feature that allows Ad-aware to counter a newly discovered exploit that incorporates HOSTS file editing to facilitate browser hijacking. Users can now scan, log, backup, remove, and restore known references in the HOSTS file efficiently and safely with a few simple clicks.

Registry protection and cleaning has also been enhanced to include detection of dynamically created registry keys while improving the overall efficacy of the deep scan mode and overall improvements in the scanning engine have made the In-Depth disk scanning mode more effective while lowering CPU resource usage.

	Speed More comprehensive and up to 400% faster than any previous release.

	Smart scan Improves speed even further and has been optimized to detect content at the root level enabling fast and efficient maintenance scanning.

	Improved Indepth scan More effective while reducing CPU resources.

	Improved deep registry scan Faster with additional registry coverage that can detect dynamically created registry keys.

	Conditional scanning Improving speed by allowing Adaware to decide when and where additional scanning is needed based on a previous detection during the scanning process.

	HOSTS file scanning Now Adaware has the ability to scan, backup, remove, and restore known references from your HOSTS file.

	More efficient reference file usage Adaware can now read and use more detailed information stored in the reference file.

	Improved Browser Hijacker detection Better detection for known and newly discovered Browser Hijackers.

	Improved log file output More comprehensive reporting for better record keeping.
