Spyware Detector is a spyware removal program and does not protect your computer from computer viruses that come through e-mail and other methods of transmission. For virus protection you will need a virus protection solution such as Norton Antivirus. As a quicker alternative you can use Panda Software’s free virus scanner. It is constantly updated and will help remove numerous viruses. NOTE: Panda Software’s free scanner only removes viruses already on your system and does not prevent future infections.
