PC Tools Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus 2010
- Comprehensive scans
- Thorough malware and virus removal
- Easy-to-use interface
- Trial version doesn't remove malware
PC Tools' Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus 2010 is, as its name implies, a more full-featured edition of Spyware Doctor 2010 (Discontinued). Reviewers maintain that this version of Spyware Doctor improves upon older editions, with faster installation times and a more powerful antivirus component. Spyware Doctor also has a variety of measures guarding against spyware, whether it is on a hard drive or lurking on an untrustworthy website. Experts find that Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus 2010 is very easy to use, while still providing detailed reports for advanced users. However, the trial version only scans for malware without removing it. Some reviewers believe this unfairly prevents potential buyers from gauging the program's potential before they commit to buy.
PCMag.com has some of the best reviews of security software, and it currently has the most thorough analysis of Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus 2010. The U.K.'s PC Advisor covers the latest version of Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus as well, but its review, though positive, is far less detailed. The editorial review at Softonic.com is similarly brief but complimentary. Only a handful of users evaluate this version of Spyware Doctor on Amazon.com.

Jon Riggall calls Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus 2010 "an excellent choice" for anti-spyware and antivirus protection. He likes the program's settings that prevent it from interrupting full-screen gaming or from running resource-intensive tasks while on laptop battery power. His only complaint is that malware removal isn't available in trial mode.
