Ad-Aware 6 heeft een upgrade gekregen naar build 181. Deze versie wordt geleverd met enkele nieuwe features en tweaks. De belangrijkste vernieuwing is de zogenoemde Smartscan. Hiermee kan het programma als het ware leren wanneer iets spy- of adware is. Naast deze scanner is Ad-Aware overclocked en is tot 400% sneller dan de vorige versies. De overige veranderingen zien er als volgt uit:
New in Ad-aware 6 Build 181:
- Speed – More comprehensive and up to 400% faster than any previous 6x release.
- Smart scan mode – Improves speed even further and has been optimized to detect content at the root level enabling fast and efficient maintenance scanning.
- Improved In-depth scan – More effective while reducing CPU resources.
- Improved deep registry scan – Faster with additional registry coverage that can detect dynamically created registry keys.
- Conditional scanning – Improving speed by allowing Ad-aware to decide when and where additional scanning is needed based on a previous detection during the scanning process.
- HOSTS file scanning – Newly discovered exploit that uses HOSTS file editing to facilitate browser hijacking has been countered with this addition. Now Ad-aware has the ability to scan, backup, remove, and restore known references from your HOSTS file.
- More efficient reference file usage – Ad-aware can now read and use more detailed information stored in the reference file.
- Improved Browser Hijacker detection – Better detection for known and newly discovered Browser Hijackers.
- Improved log file output – More comprehensive reporting for better record keeping.
- Reference Number: 1R200 12.07.2003
