Spybot Search & Destroy

[Jasmine]

Hello

One of the best tools for finding malicious software on your computer. At times if you are running anti virus software they might not remove all types of infected files or missing something so thats when I use Spybot

Best of all its free from http://www.safer-networking.org/index2.html

i prefer counterspy, ad aware used to be great but the new version takes up too much memory IMO

[Luq]

i still think ad aware is the best choice, counterspy is quite good but ad aware has a higher detection rate, and i don't think it occupies too much memory, even the latest builds.

I have been using Spybot and adaware for many years now, I really cant believe that Spybot being such a powerful piece of software is free

I thought you had linux installed on your machine from one of the other threads you have made?

well anyway thanks for the other software listed in this thread was not aware of them but will check them out

Well don't think you have caught me out dude, I do indeed have a job and have to work from a laptop and because I work with networks I need to ensure my machine is malware free so that I don't infect my entire network.
