More Information

1.) Ad-Aware SE Personal it free for home users.
www.lavasoft.com

2.) Spybot - Search & Destroy
Link:http://www.spybot.info/en/index.html

3.) Stop spyware before it starts Prevent unwanted software from installing on your PC with the simple, lightweight, and free utility SpywareBlaster 3.4 . Block browser hijackers and even tracking cookies easily.

ref; SpywareBlaster
a plus this is a add-in to Spybot - Search & Destroy they work hand in hand with each other talk about something sweet to have.

SpywareBlaster doesn't scan for and clean spyware - it prevents it from being installed in the first place. SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, dialers, browser hijackers, and other potentially unwanted programs. It can also block spyware/tracking cookies in IE and Mozilla/Firefox, and restrict the actions of spyware/ad/tracking sites. With the built-in Check for Updates feature, you can help ensure your protection is up-to-date. SpywareBlaster also includes a System Snapshot feature, which lets you take a snapshot of your computer in its clean state and later revert, undoing many changes made by spyware and browser hijackers.

===========================================

all free will kill them off, and all of them have a update option to use to any new release updates for them.

tip for first time use of them update them first then scan all files and drives

i been looking for SpywareBlaster some time to add it back into Spybot S&D

if you really think something is going on inside your system and it acting up go here: ""iamnotageek.com" they check your system and see whats really going on.

they see if you have spyware,viruses, adware or something new in there. they use Spybot S&D Log and HiJackthis logs to look it over and tell what is needed tobe remove or deleted.

if none of the above work use hijackthis it will show everything running on your system and gives you the option to remove them, make sure you know what your removing though as if you remove something that you shouldnt you will have problems http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/

hijackthis.exe don't edited anything if you don't know what is what to remove or delete. you may crash the system totally, best go to a site were there are people who do know what to look for. " www.iamnotageek.com " or " www.wilderssecurity.com "

i am a member of www.wilderssecurity.com i have trouble it were i go to get my system look over they use HijackThis.log or Spybot - Search & Destroy.log files to read into it and see what is going on inside your system.
