Now Rated in the TOP 3 spyware protection programs in the world
Spybot - Search & Destroy can detect and remove spyware of different kinds from your computer. Spyware is a relatively new kind of threat that common anti-virus applications do not yet cover. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you didn't intentionally install, if your browser crashes, or if you browser start page has changed without your knowing, you most probably have spyware. But even if you don't see anything, you may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging that is silently tracking your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile of you that will be sold to advertisement companies. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm in trying to see if something snooped into your computer, too :)

A+ Computer Review:

Spybot - Search & Destroy adds some truly useful features to an already excellent application. Not only does Spybot check your system against a comprehensive and timely database of adware and other undesirable system invaders, the new "Immunize" feature provides a front-line defense against an invasive plethora of uninvited adware and spyware, blocking it from even gaining access to your computer. Spybot - Search and Destroy includes Secure Shredder, for completely destroying files; Hosts File, for blocking adware servers from your computer; and System Startup, which lets you review which applications load when you start your computer. There are two very functional interface options, Easy Mode and Advanced Mode. If you are not completely sure of what you are doing we suggest using the Easy Mode option, since the Advanced Mode is a little more complicated. In our book Spybot rates above all the other spyware/adware removal products currently available, and the best part: Spybot is FREE! Spybot is on all our computers here at A+ Computer Labs, its a definite must-have for any serious computer user!
