Of course. All spyware is free. Just enter some porn sites - the more the better - and agree to install anything they ask you to. Hey presto, a bit pile of steaming hot spyware right on your computer.

Use this one:

Spybot - Search & Destroy

It's real spyware a$$-kicking program. But you have to be aware what you're removing. But you get enough disclaimers about that. It's like overclocking. :whistling: ^_^

Another good one for removing stuff would be Ad-Aware from Lavasoft - I believe the Personal version is free - it can clean some crap too.

EasyCleaner will remove invalid entries in your Windows registry, you can't go without it.

I personnaly use Spybot - Search & Destroy, SpywareBlaster, Ad-Aware Se Personal, Spyware Doctor.

Also, get Firefox if you don't use it already. Best spyware and ad blocker ever. You can find several extentions to help you out for security reasons too, I love NoScript for instance. :)

I use Ad-Aware along with Opera webbrowser.
Ever since i started using Opera, Ad-aware have been in idle-mode almost always.

The BEST SPyware-protection you can get is to get another web-browser.

My recomendation to you is:
1. Get Ad-aware (see link above)
2. Clean your computer
3. Get an Anti-Virus like "AVG" perhaps
4. Clean your computer
5. Type www.opera.com in you browser
6. Download and install Opera
7. Enjoy pop-up free surfing.

Opera can be set to have them pop-under, since SOME popups are required sometimes.
There is a difference between ad-popups and user-demanded popups.

Also run ewido anti amlware on your computer unless you buy the full version after 21 days trial period it will stop having a resident sheild and only scan your pc for malware scan everey few days and keep it updated. Clcik here to goto ewidos homepage

This is VERY, VERY true! :ok: But Opera needs a bit adjusting and that can be hard if you don't know PCs too well.

But I think we're flooding you with information GAME-CRACK. ^_^

Isn't that what the internet is all about? Overflow with information? :)

My personal spyware + virus protection is:
Spywareblaster Find it here
Adaware SE Personal addition Find it here
Spybot S&D Find it here
AVAST antivirus Find it here

All right... all that is free too except for Avast... you got to register for the key but registration is free, so that would make the program free too ;) :whistling:
