Spyware

I've been using Spybot Search and Destroy for over a year now and it sure cleans up a lot of room when it removes all the spyware. You have to remember to delete the back-up files eventually though.

nice post there janie

a lot of use use this here along with adaware from lavasoft available here

best of both worlds and covers just about most adware/spyware

one note to remember removing certain spyware/addware can sometimes CRIPPLE freeware tools that are add supported so make sure that you really want to remove the addware listed that is found by these tools

Another good program to use and I beleive it to be more important is a program called Spywareblaster.

SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being installed.

Kind regards,

http://cexx.org/ - another useful resource, identifying methods, recognition and removal for several spywares, and other "Counterexploitation" issues.

For me Spybot S&D + Spyware Blaster is an awesome combo, leaving nothing to be desired.

SpywareBlaster

I just put on SpywareBlaster. I feel so secure now! Anything, other than programs not working that I need to watch out for with this one?
