System Requirements:
When we install software onto our computers, most of us don't know what the
software is actually doing to our system.
What is the application installing on your PC? Is it adding information to
the Registry, and could it be adding spyware to the system which reports back to
the software supplier?
WinPatrol enables you to sniff out problematic software that would normally
be classed as spyware, adware, a worm or Trojan horse.
These are applications that install on your computer with the sole purpose of
performing a hidden task, such as trying to find loopholes in your system,
logging keystrokes when you surf the internet and much more.
This application is different from other security applications in that it
won't scan your hard drive looking for previously installed threats.
It's a proactive not re-active application which will constantly examine your
current system and warn you if any changes have occurred without your
permission.
