To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

I have been using Adaware since 1999…

I have been using Adaware since 1999 and have never had any issues with this software. Easy to install and use. I still have a machine with XP as the OS because of certain hardware and software and Adaware is protecting this machine just fine thank you very much,
