SpywareGuard 2.2 is a tool that proportions protection in real time against spyware. It works similar to an antivirus, examining files and advising you if it detects any known spyware. In this case it blocks access to those files, and gives the user a series of options.
SpywareGuard 2.2 is NOT a substitute for your antivirus protection, but detects programs that could threaten your privacy. It has a long list of programs that it detects, and there are upgrades available to download.
