Recommend Spyware remover

[dtmbb92]

I've been noticing lately on my computer that it has been acting wierd like changing homepage, more popups, and being slow. I believe it is because of spyware. I have run Ad-aware and it doesn't find all the spyware and I've run Norton's Antivirus. I just downloaded Spyhunter and it found all the spyware but it won't remove them without purchasing it. Could anyone recommend something that will get rid of all this mess?

Did you update Ad-aware?

I use a combination of AdAware 6 and Spy Bot Search and Destroy. Seems to clean up the computer very well.

My wife just got hit was some annoying adware. Used SpyBot and Adaware 6.0 and it all seems to be clean. Felt I had to make a donation to spybot, hope everyone else does the same.

I used Spybot and their immunization. I also have a firewall and antivirus so even w/o ad-aware my computer is pretty clean. I scan about once a month now and it always comes up clean.

What he said.

Adaware with updates and also cwshredder for those hijacked homepages.

Spyware Blaster prevents a lot of spyware from getting installed and I install this on computers that I expect to give me tons of problems.

don't forget zone alarm!...zone alarm = rules for blocking data mining cookie, blocking banner ads

Run spybot and adaware then install spywareblaster and keep it updated to block spyware scum from ever being installed.
