AdwareMedic for Mac review
AdwareMedic for Mac quickly scans your machine for adware and then gives you the ability to remove it with just a few clicks. Additionally, the app offers a wealth of information about how to proceed if you continue to have issues after removing all apps that are specifically adware.
Pros
Compact and efficient: AdwareMedic takes up very little space on your computer. In fact, all it downloads is a text document with updated adware definitions, so it can identify all unwanted items on your computer. Scans are also completed quickly, and you can delete items right from the list of results, making the entire process of removing adware from your computer quick and easy.
Good resources: In addition to removing adware, this software also includes a nice set of resources for helping you deal with other related issues you may encounter. These resources include helpful tips and links to more in-depth information in case you continue to have issues after adware removal.
Cons
Basic functionality: This app only removes independent software specifically identified as adware. It can't help you reset your browser settings if adware has infiltrated, and it can't remove other unwanted programs that may have installed without your knowledge along with the adware. While the accompanying resources do include information about this, it would be nice if at least a bit more functionality was included.
Bottom Line
Adware Medic for Mac is a free utility that will eliminate adware from your computer quickly and efficiently. It's not the most powerful or versatile program, but if adware is your problem, this is a good solution. Its streamlined process makes it accessible for users of all experience levels, and the additional information provided is a nice touch.
