NETGATE Spy Emergency 2009
Recently there has been a wave of updates in some software. One of them is NETGATE technologies' security software, Spy Emergency. Spy Emergency 2008 is a very nice security add-on for your PC and for their newly released 2009 edition, they went on some minor upgrades to further polish it into a better software.
One of the most noticable change users can spot is its user interface. It wasn't a surprise that NETGATE has been changing its software's user interface with every major releases, but then change is good: the GUI still looks pretty impressive.
The second thing is that the 2009 edition has a better memory management compared to previous releases. The program now splits processing modules into two separate processes instead of one and thus, its responsiveness has increased dramatically. Although the 2009 edition still bears the 2008 version's weakness of using up a very high CPU cycle during the scanning process, but comparing it to the 2008 edition, responsiveness is still, a big plus.
Of course, there are some things which Spy Emergency still retains. Its scanning engines and update module have not been change so users can expect the same update frequencies and capabilities, apart from the scanning engines and usability experienced in the 2008 version.
I have high regards of this security software and in my opinion, it is a much better paid-for scanner than other scanners such as Ad-Aware Pro and Spyware Doctor.
