Prevent spyware infections WITHOUT user intervention

by kmpirish . Updated 17 years, 6 months ago

Does anyone know of a tool that prevents spyware infections without asking the user to approve or deny an installation or change?

I’ve looked at tools like Lavasoft’s Ad-Watch, Spybot’s Tea Timer, Microsoft’s AntiSpyware, etc, but each tool pops up a message when a change is attempted. That would mean lots more calls for us – no thanks.

I’d rather be able to block such changes silently. I am looking into the possiblity of making our users a member of Users on the local PC, but it’s going to take a lot of research and time before that can happen. Any suggestions for the meantime?

Thanks,
Kate
