  1. Probably Webroot Spysweeper - but it isn't free and it is a resource hog in my opinion.

    Superantispyware has a free version and is very thorough; scanning the memory, registry and hard drives; it also has an impressive repair function for many problems that occur after spyware has infected your system. Regular updates. Get it here

  2. You can free download antispyware 2008

    http://www.anti-spyware-2008.com which is an essential tool to keep your system free of dangerous spywares, protecting your privacy and your PC.

    It also works very well for me


  3. go to : http://toptenantispyware.com/

    List the best 10 software.

  4. No one Malware Removal program is "Better" than another.  They all have their faults and each one will develop a new signature or fix before or after another..  You need a layered approach of defense.

    In the world of security, you get what you pay for!

    Larger companies are able to be more proactive in developing signatures for the latest threats. Every day, new viruses are created or morphed from old ones that a whole new definition has to be written for.

    If you pay for your AV, your getting a PAID staff to stay on top of things. Free AVs have to go about other ways and enticements to get their money to survive.

    It all depends on what you do with your computer. Do you use it to surf p**n? Do you care about your information? Do you use it for sensitive information?

    THE most important things you can do (besides running AV) is to ensure that the OS is fully patched, all of your software has the most current version, and that you do your everyday things with an account that does not have Admin Privileges!

    If I was going to pay money (much better), I would go with Norton, McAfee, or Trend Micros, Kapersky.

    The best FREE Security Software programs according to Consumer Reports are -

    Antivirus Alwil Avast Home Edition or AVG

    Antispyware/antiadware Install both Microsoft Windows Defender and SpyBot Search and Destroy

    Antispam SPAMfighter standard or Microsoft's Outlook or Windows Mail with Junk Mail Filter.

    Browser security toolbar McAfee Site Advisor.

    Software firewall ZoneAlarm 7.0 (Windows XP, 2000) and 7.1 (Vista).

    Rootkit detection AVG Anti-Rootkit. Not tested, but worth trying because other free programs don't claim to protect against this insidious type of malware.

    Behavior Based Detection - www.ThreatFire.com - It works GREAT with Symantec Corporate 10.2!  I have been using the product for 2 months now and have been impressed so far!  It is also FREE for home use!
