A press release from PrivacyAnywhere Software:
PrivacyAnywhere Software has released PestBlock v. 1.5, a safe, powerful Windows application that finds and destroys hidden threats in your PC. Unlike utilities that superficially check for a few obvious problems that might be affecting your computer, PestBlock scans your memory, registry, and drives for known parasites, adware, spyware, and other unwanted software. It can analyze your files, registry, and memory quickly, and identify and remove the infections that threaten your computer's stability and privacy.
PestBlock can detect and remove the spyware and adware programs that have been installed on your PC without your knowledge or permission, and stop them from transmitting your personal information to the bad guys. PestBlock can also tell if you have a keylogger installed. Keyloggers capture every key that you press, and send this information to people who want to steal your identity. The people receiving your keystroke information can find your passwords, account numbers, and credit card data. PestBlock uncovers keyloggers, and lets you remove them.
While many people willingly install browser helper objects (BHOs) on their computers, some of the lesser known BHOs can contain invisible functions that compromise your privacy. Most BHOs are innocent Internet Explorer toolbar add-ons that let you perform easy Internet searches. Some BHOs are also looking for your spreadsheet and financial software files, and sending them across the Internet to people who want to rob you. PestBlock detects BHOs, and allows you to remove them.
Many web sites encourage you to install dialers that give you access to free games, software cracks, and adult material. Many of these programs dial offshore phone numbers that cost you a fortune in long-distance telephone charges. PestBlock finds these dialers, and removes them from your computer.
Whether you're a business owner who needs to protect your computers from the threats that anti-virus and firewall software don't address, a home user who needs to ensure that your credit card numbers and passwords are safe from prying eyes, or a school network administrator who needs to regularly scan and remove dangerous software from the computers in your care, PestBlock has the tools that you need.
PestBlock v. 1.5 runs under Windows 95/98/Me/NT4/2000/XP/2003, costs $39.95 for a single-user license, and may be purchased securely online at http://www.privacyanywhere.com/. Multi-user license discounts are available. You can download a free trial version from the same Internet site. For more information, visit http://www.privacyanywhere.com/ or send an email to
