Did you ever appreciate the convenience of a well designed software's interface and just enjoyed using that specific program? You think such an experience won't be possible with an anti-spyware-system? Here you are wrong. A convenient interface and understandable menu needn't be a graphical masterpiece, so design aspects aren't an issue to focus on when purchasing an anti-spyware software. The main aspect to focus on when choosing a spyware-detection program is its level of having automated most of the standard routines you will use in the daily life.
Among the routines that should run automatically is of course the regular scan of your Computer for spyware and other kinds of malicious software. Since there is no use in looking for that kind of software manually and you won't be interested in the details how to remove it, this task is predestined to run automatically. Just make sure the intervals aren't too big, a scan every several hours should be minimum. Furthermore the database the software is accessing should be updated at least hourly, so your Computer is protected on the most recent standard.
One of the most annoying features most anti-spyware softwares have, is that every 10 minutes or so pop-ups appear on your Desktop to remind you of adjusting several features in order to improve the anti-spyware's efficiency. Most of the actions those pop-ups request could be conducted automatically, their main purpose is in most cases to remind you that you have a spyware blocker running on your system. So in order not to get distracted from work by a software that should run in the background, make sure the spyware blocker focuses on the convenience of using it as well as on technical aspects.
