6/1/2010:
Trend Micro offers basic anti-spyware features. We appreciate the blacklist and whitelist to specify trusted and non-trusted websites. It effectively removes spyware.
This Antispyware product offers adequate protection from spyware. It utilizes Blacklist and Whitelist features. As with all other top rated programs, Trend Micro continuously monitors for any new or existing threats on your system. This product will keep your system secure from damaging spyware.
Installation
Trend Micro downloaded quickly, but there was a considerable delay until startup time.
Usability
The interface font is inconveniently small and we could not navigate the program very intuitively. Additionally, Trend Micro significantly affected our other applications, causing them to be slow and unstable.
Customer Support
Trend Micro has a toll free phone support, but in our trial we were placed on hold for over ten minutes. The online support requires you to create an account in order to ask a question, which was unnecessary and time-consuming.
Scanning Options
With this product you can perform a full, quick or custom scan.
Updates
Trend Micro Anti-Spyware is updated regularly keep you protected against the latest threats.
Summary
Trend Micro is a basic spyware remover. But given its problems with usability and stability, we feel there are better options.
