I am looking for a free spyware removal tool. I was wondering what you guys thought was the best and where I could find it for free.

 

spybot is good..... and ad-ware personal. Thats what i use and its pretty good. You can find it on download.com.

 

+1 for ad-aware

 

+1 for both lol. I thinkt hey both find different stuff to delete off your pc.

 

i use both of them fing02.gif fing02.gif

 

Ad-aware, SpywareBlaster, Spybot-Search & Destroy, SpywareGuard, StartPageGuard, Hijack This... I've found all of these to be fairly useful at one stage or another. Although I've not had any probs for a long time, so these could be obsolete now.
download.com

 

spybot w/ ad-aware combo A++

just make sure that you check/download new definitions frequently

oh yeah... also, protect your spybot against viruses.. There are viruses out there that targets spybot

 

spybot and adaware is the stuff. spyware blaster is good for block once you get it cleaned off. there's a program called x-cleaner that i use on occasion if the machine is so bad i can't get spybot installed. get back to me if those don't work and i've got a few more extereme measures solutions up my sleeve fing02.gif

edit: oh btw, get those programs installed, update them, then run them in safe mod for the best results. (press f8 while booting and choose safe mode)

 

wow. i thought i was the only person using that.. Alright Spybot and Ad-ware.

 

I use MS Anti-Spyware and Spybot. In conjunction they pick up what the other one misses. Both free! and the MS one runs without user intervention. So i dont have to remember to run it or schedule it to run!
