Below are the two very best free spyware programs that you can download.
http:www.emsisoft.com This software company is out of Austria and comes in all different languages. You can download their free A-Squared Malware version an it will scan your entire system for rogue dialers, malware, adware, spyware either with a quick scan or an indepth scan that will scan all compressed files and hidden files. All you will have to do is fill out a short form so they can send you a free registry key. You need a key for the free or the purchase. The purchase is only different being that it will give you auto updates and as a guard in the tray. You can do manual updates and you don’t need the guard. Excellent program have used it for years. Plus no conflict with any antivirus system. (Only use one antivirus system or you will have serious conflict). You can use three or more antispyware programs. I use three antispyware programs.
http//www.ewido.net. This program is out of Prague an is very much like the one above. The program is free, if you want to purchase then you must upgrade and you will get auto updates and the guard in the tray.
Here are two more that I use that are free an excellent.
http//www.superantispyware.com This is an excellent antispyware program with frequent updates and usually will find spyware that no other program can find. Scans your memory, registry, files and folders. Scans all 175,000 objects in my system.
An I also use from Sweden, http//www.lavasoft.com Download their free Ad-aware Se Personal for home use. It is another excellent spyware program.
You can only use one antivirus program. If you want a really excellent program that is light years ahead of any paid antivirus program download, http/www.avast.com There free home use version. Again you must fill out a form as they will send you your free key via email an it is good for one year. After one year you must request a new key. This program updates daily or sometimes twice per day. Never had a virus with this program.
All of the above program are free of embedded spyware or viruses. I trust them and use them.
