I have problems with my computer mostly due to spyware . Can anyone recommend the best software to remove spyware?
Depends what it is. Spyware: Spybot S&D Adaware Other crap you should run Trend Housecall to begin with.
Follow this link G4TV Tech Support... All are FREE... Look down the list for Web based Virus and Trojan Scanners... Run the first 3 Online scans...i.e. ( Panda Active Scan , Trend Micro House Call Virus Scanner & BitDefender Free On-line Virus Scan)... I'd also download Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-Aware SE, Ewido Security Suite and maybe A-Squared... Install them then look for updates and run them... You can find these on the same site under Adware, Spyware, Trojan, and Hijacker Scanners...
kaspersy was slowing my machine down big time!!! i use ad-aware and run microsoft anti spyware, both are good and compliment each other.!
I think reinstall the OS will be the best way. I haven't seen a spyware program that can remove spyware completely
I am guessing that the type of sites you visit can be a part of the issue along with "free" downloads. Saying that, I have found spybot to be pretty good, I have worked on a few computers with loads of spyware and usually a trojan or two.
I use Active Scan Pro from http://www.pandasoftware.com. I like it because it is fully web based and you don't have to install any software on your machine. It's also works brilliantly. Whenever my machine starts to act all wierd I fire it up, and sure enough I've picked up a spyware or virus. This software is also great for removing viruses and spyware etc... Regards David Tislini
i use to use spysweeper but now they make you sign up so i am not sure, my best choice would be going to http://download.com and looking at the progs they have.
Spybot. Plus it's free. Defintely help my computer out to remove the spywares. I didn't realize how many I had.
I also got the same problem. I tried Nortan, AVG, NOD, Kasper, Panda. But all fails to remove spyware and stop virus. Only NOD is little fine with me. I did spyware scan and found 42 spyware in my PC. Pls help me how I can remove it?
Personally i use AVG and i am pretty happy with it but when i have download files from attachment file or some other sources i scan the file from virustotal.For spyware i use Adware.
