Ad-aware coming to US stores

Lavasoft will offer its anti-spyware "Ad-ware Plus" as a boxed version in US stores through publisher Tri Synergy, the company said Friday.

Compared to the standard version, the "plus" edition offers enhanced scanning capabilities, more detailed log files, and new command line parameters that allow users to update, scan, log, quarantine and remove spyware, Lavasoft said. The software will be available during the current quarter across North America. Pricing information has not been released. (THG)
