Does anyone know what spyware adware removal program works the best and which one is the safest one to use? - Adware Spyware Removal - Knowledge Base

Does anyone know what spyware / adware removal program works the best and which one is the safest one to use?

My computer has been freezing a lot especially if I am using Myspace and yahoo messanger together. I did a free spyware / adware scan on my computer and It said that I had 154 registry problems 74 cookie problems and 15 infected files. I want to use a spyware / adware software tool removal program off of the internet but I don't know which one will be the safest one and which one works the best. It is for windows 98. I also did another scan and it said I had over 2, 000 worms. I am wondering if these scans are just crap trying to get you to spend money and won't actually fix the problem. It still works just very slow sometimes and freezes quite often. If anyone knows of a good program please help me Thank You!

There is gona be a million answer here. But I suggest you use Spybot Search & Destory, Microsoft's Defender, Adaware. DO NOT BUY A SPYWARE SCANNER. You can get better ones for free. I also suggest you use more then one seeing how some spyware scanners pickup what others missed. Don't forget to keep them updated. You usually do this through the options in the program. Wow 2, 000 worms? You should use either one of these free virus scanners AVG or Avest. Also get a firewall. You can find free ones like Zone Alarm. Actually I would go ahead and reformat the system if it is that compromised. If you already own the operating system CD then you can do this. If not then you will need to buy one
The number one recommended program is unbelievable "free" find and download Spybot and AdWare, you will also have to change you computer habits. No more "Free" anything; no more opening emails from unknown persons, I know it will hurt but trust me it is all you can do! Take care, God Bless You and the Southern People
use Kaspersky Anti - Virus 6. 0 yes. spyware doctor >> some antivirus will miss key keylogger and trojans. frist of all you need to download avg antispyware this is verry good in getting all kinda bad files. then you need to download Adaware a - squared< is verry good in picking up traking software files that is on the pc and it will find them. then download antispyware blocker that will find any type of virus. trojans files with antispyware blocker when you run that at the top of the box ur see C: WINDOWS remove the word windows and just leave in C: then hit scan it will search all of the pc every file for virus or trojans and this will not have any problem with ur antivirus you have i have this my self. then download spyware doctor that will search the pc for even more spyware adaware. just having 1 or 2 antispyware do not cut any ice at all you neeed what i said to download. when you have them run ur pc in safemode and scan the pc with then 1 at a time. this way from safemode the trojan and keylogger can not hide them self coz there is not internet access on in safe mode all the software i said to download will get the trojans and keylogger if they say some are in the registry you watch what path there in and get in the registry and right hit on that folder and hit remove do not worry when the pc restart up win xp will creat a new clean folder for you
spybot not sure how much it is, pretty good program, ad - aware - really good program free online, it might be a little outdated
Spyware doctor from pctools also get zonealarm if you do not have a firewall
Hi. Sometimes the scans exaggerate a bit. Search for ' adaware se', ' spybot ', and ' avg free'. They seem to work well and also seem safe
Make sure your anti - virus is up to date or you can down load a free one at free. grisoft.com / doc / 2 / lng / us / tpl / v5 or avast.com / eng / programs.html then down load Ad - Aware SE Personal Edition 1. 06 to remove bad cookies at 1. 06download.com / 3000 - 2144 - 10045910.html
I can give you a link to spyware remover sites. ! You may be having a virus or spyware installed on your PC. Norton, AVG, Avast are free antivirus software. Ad - aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at fixit. in / antivirus.html and fixit. in / spywareremover.html
I use Windows Defender Beta free and SpyBot Search & Destroy free. Never had any problems. Good luck!
Window Defender is the Best. I can say that because it the only free one with Real Time Scanning. About it. microsoft.com / athome / security / spyware / software / about / overview. mspx Get it here. microsoft.com / athome / security / spyware / software / default. mspx
