Over time, it has evolved to encompass PC optimization tools that enhance speed and performance. Designed to harmonize seamlessly with any antivirus software, SpyZooka distinguishes itself by addressing what traditional antivirus programs overlook.
Back in 2004, one of our co-founders, Carl Haugen, encountered the frustrations of a relentless spyware infection that defied all removal attempts. Determined to tackle this growing menace, he joined forces with Bogdan Necula to conceive a solution that would put an end to the malware dilemma. Thus, the journey of SpyZooka began. In 2005, we proudly pioneered the concept of a 100% spyware removal guarantee. The innovative approach was simple yet effective: users submitted spyware reports via SpyZooka, and within a mere 24 hours, we updated our database to eradicate the threat. This commitment remains steadfast in the present day.
Over the years, malware has evolved into a more intricate adversary. However, the evolution of counter technologies has been equally remarkable. At SpyZooka, we’re embracing cutting edge AI powered tools for the identification and elimination of all forms of malware. The true power lies in numbers: as more individuals integrate SpyZooka into their systems, our collective efforts will expedite the realization of our malware free vision.
We’ve been obsessed with optimizing PC speed and experience since our tender college days. In 2004, we created SpyZooka: the malware-annihilating, speed-optimizing, privacy-protecting tool we’d always wanted. And then made a free version, because we’re nice like that

We’re Carl Haugen and Bogdan Necula. We’re self proclaimed, die hard PC nerds with a passion to create great software. We founded SpyZooka in 2004, and we get better every year thanks to our amazing supporters
“The year was 2004, and I got a nasty spyware infection. My computer was as slow as molasses, popups appeared constantly and no matter what I tried, nothing worked to fix it.
Even the so-called top software at the time was worthless.
Instead of chucking my computer out the window, I decided to team up with some brilliant coders to create software that actually works. But I didn’t stop there. I knew that a great product would only be part of the equation. We would also have to offer world class customer support.
Even back in 2004 when I started, my vision for SpyZooka was always simple. And crystal clear
- “People First”.
And it’s people, from the experts on our team to our valued customers, who have helped us grow, and become better and better every year.
We don’t rely on venture capitalists for our funding. It’s people who drive us every day to continually improve SpyZooka so that everyone can have a clean, secure and fast PC.”
“That may sound like a strange passion to have, but it’s something I’ve felt from a young age. My passion started when I was only 13 years old. And like many teens, I loved computer games.
In fact, I loved them so much that playing them wasn’t enough so I decided to code my own game. And the rest is history.
I continued with my passion in graduate school. My focus was the detection and removal of rootkits, which is the most difficult malware created. I learned how bad guys get your data and hack into your computer, and more importantly, how to prevent it. We’ve been in business since 2004 and we’ve never had a data breach.
As manager of the SpyZooka programming department, I make sure we spend as long as it takes to do things right. We apologize when we’re wrong. And if something breaks, we fix it.
If you ever find a bug and let us know, we’ll extend your SpyZooka Ultimate subscription by double the amount of time it takes us to fix the bug!
My goal is making your computer as fast, clean and secure as my computer is!”
Our automated testing finds and fixes bugs in SpyZooka before the next version is released. Every month, we release new and improved versions!
SpyZooka anonymously reports bugs from computers worldwide. If your version reports a bug, we fix it faster than you can say “Ew, gross, a bug!” And of course, you can turn off anonymous bug reporting anytime.
Our ultimate goal is helping your computer run faster and more securely while making SpyZooka even easier to use. Your feedback, questions, comments and user testing help ensure we meet this goal for you.
SpyZooka is coded by us, we don’t outsource or rebrand someone else’s code.
