With over 400 million downloads worldwide, Ad-Aware FREE has been delivering proven antispyware and antivirus technologies that are both trusted and used by more people than any other online security products. That’s why in conjunction of the new Ad-Aware 10 launch, we have decided to highlight its powerful antivirus components by renaming it to Ad-Aware Free Antivirus +.

• Gaming (silent) mode

• Advanced Rootkit Protection

• Enhanced Real-Time Protection

• Download protection
