From the very beginning, an essential part of our company policy has been the commitment to providing accurate information about threats to your privacy and security, so that YOU can make informed decisions about how to handle possible threats.
Along with the extensive analysis and strict requirements that we have in place when objects are identified as spyware and malware in our Detection Database, we have always believed in leaving the door open for direct dialogue with adware vendors (authors/distributors of what is commonly referred to as malware and spyware).
We're not ones to brag... didn't we tell you that before? Well, in our defense, this is news, after all!
Ad-Aware SE Personal was named a Runner-Up in the "Best Free Download" category of Computer Shoppers' 21st Annual Shoppers' Choice Awards.
We were voted the first runner up behind - Mozilla Firefox. We don't think taking second to a browser favorite like Firefox is bad at all!
We're not ones to brag. We know we don't need to bombard you with in your face advertising because Ad-Aware speaks for itself every time it scans your PC!
But we're proud of our commitment to securing your privacy and security, and we're proud of the way you, our users, respond to that commitment. That's why we don't mind taking a moment for a little shameless self-promotion.
We received confirmation from CNETs Download.com website that Ad-Aware is number one in total software downloads.
You already know that Lavasoft is committed to creating a safer computing environment by protecting all of our users from the dangers of online threats in our cyber world.
But that commitment to a safe environment also extends to threats in the real world.
Tradera recently had an online auction, with all proceeds going to the non-profit organization Friends. When we saw the chance to uphold our commitment to corporate consciousness, we jumped at the opportunity.
In the spirit of helping fellow computer users, we'd like to call attention to our top three volunteers posting in our Lavasoft Support Forums.
JurgenV, who joined the forum on June 13th, leads the way with a whopping 929 posts! Miekiemoes, with us since May 17th, has a grand total of 605 postings. Not too far behind that is Spike-nz, who joined the team on June 17th, and has posted 545 times since.
Dear PC World:
First off, we fully understand why you chose to review Lavasoft's Ad-Aware SE Personal in your August 25th article, "Spyware Fighters."
You're right: it is popular software! In fact, Ad-Aware SE is trusted by more than 200 million computer users worldwide. But, what we don't quite comprehend is why your article ranked all of the reviewed anti-spyware software, both paid and free, together in the same group.
Everyone likes to receive a pat on the back sometimes, to know that something they are doing makes a difference in another persons life. Here at Lavasoft, we're no different.
We are thrilled to announce that Jane Whitty, A.K.A CalamityJane, has joined the Lavasoft team!
In June, the Lavasoft Team moved our headquarters to Gothenburgs landmark building, Göteborgs-utkiken (commonly known as "The Lipstick"). With increased space and a staff that continues to expand every day, Lavasoft continues to commit the resources necessary to provide you, our users and partners around the globe, with the high quality service and support that you have come to expect.
Watch this blog for more news and pics that let you know what we've been up to!

We are proud to announce the launching of our all new support forums! We welcome our customers and users to take advantage of this new resource for Ad-Aware, security, privacy, and most importantly, research related information and assistance.
