help! please
My computer has been telling me I have spywear on it. So, I ran a scan through CyberDefender and it detected 81 infections in 37 spywear items. So I pushed the remove items button and I have to pay and register and all that. Is there any way to remove those items for free?

Thank you for your help!

Check this out.
There is a list of FREE spyware and malware removers .
I personally like SuperAntispyware(free), but it isn't on this list.

Run this online scan: http://www.eset.com/onlinescan/
It will let you remove the threats at the end of the scan
