PestPatrol is a powerful security and personal privacy tool that detects and eliminates destructive pests like trojans, spyware, adware and hacker tools. It complements your anti-virus and firewall software, extending your protection against non-viral malicious software that can evade your existing security and invade your personal privacy.
PestPatrol defeats the threat by detecting and removing:
- Spyware and adware that "phones home" information about you, your computer, and your surfing habits
- Remote access trojans (RATs) that allow an attacker to remotely control your computer
- Keystroke loggers that can steal passwords and other confidential data
- Denial-of-service (DoS) attack agents that can crash or hang a program, or your entire system
- Probe tools that look for vulnerabilities on your system that a hacker can exploit
