spyware remover references
Hello Everyone,

I am utilizing McAfee as my protection of choice and I used to use xofsoftse spyware remover. I was thinking of trying a new spyware remover before I renewed xofsoftse. As part of Comcast internet toolbar it has a free spyware removal tool but I have always heard of utilizing multiple spyware software. Since there are way to many bad ones out there I wanted to hear if anyone has anything great to say about a particular program. Free is always better but a great working program is what im after. In past spyware removers I would scan and get things with one scanner that another would not find and then it would find them again right after deleting the spyware?

I have a 4year (1year hard drive) old dell inspiron 8600, Windows xp sp2, 90gb, (only half full) ,1.7 mhz processor, 512 ram. I generally communicate and photo edit with my computer with some video editing in there also.

Thanks

jeff

I think AVG Anti-Spyware and SuperAntiSpyware Are Good Choices,
AVG also scans for trojans as well as spyware,
and alot of people recommend superantispyware,
both superantispyware and avg anti-spyware have paid and free versions I only have the free versions on both,
the avg anti-spyware starts as a paid version but after 30 days it reverts to the free version.
