Company: Headlight Software - About Geek Superhero
Status: Free 30-day evaluation. Commercialware - $25

While its comic-inspired motif may come across as a bit distracting – and even goofy – Geek Superhero has quite a bit to offer under its somewhat flaky exterior. The $25 client protects your computer from a wide variety of nefarious and annoying activities that can stealthily infiltrate your computer, including adware and spyware components, programs that secretly install and automatically run when Windows starts, and poorly trained apps that leave unwanted detritus littered across your desktop.

Those looking for a slightly more polished program are in luck — Headlight now offers a toned-down, business-oriented sibling called Desktop Armor that offers all the same features as Geek Superhero.
