When I run Spybot or the Microsoft malware remover tool my computer shuts down. I'm running AVG now and it hasn't shut down yet. I was able to run it yesterday and it didn't find any problems.

Anybody know of anything free I can do now? I really don't want to have to reload my hard drive.

  1. I also run AVG and have run Spy Bot but neither one detected my problem, I then tried the free edition from superantispyware.com.  It found and deleted the virus. Not every program picks up everything therefore you have to keep trying different ones. I would highly recommend this site to anyone trying to get rid of a virus, spyware or adware.


  2. http://www.superantispyware.com  Download the free version.

  4. What's up,

    I'm betting that you have a serious spyware problem.  This can be a very pesky thing to have on  your computer.

    I've personally gone through a couple of computers now due to serious spyware and adware infections.  Once the spyware get's settled, it invites all of it's pesky relatives.  Spyware open's your computer up to adware, malware, and trojan infections.

    This can make it very hard to totally erradicate.  I've read that it hides in all of your files and legit programs, and can be nearly impossible to totally get rid of.

    I've also read that it is a lot cheaper, and a whole lot easier to just prevent spyware.  

    I asked my computer guy about it, and he told me to check out this website http://www.honestspywarereview.com .  

    I picked the number one spyware program to help keep my computer free of harmful programs.  It picked up 20 parasites on it's first scan.  And continues to keep my computer clean.

    If you suspect that your computer is infected with spyware, I would highly suggest that you get it fixed today.  Because if you don't, you might end up having to buy a new computer like I did.  Twice.
