Hi guys, after my flat mate telling me how good this msn plus was i downloaded it, only to discover it is affliated with a lop.com search bar in IE, which removed my pop-up stopper toolbar. So i posted a message on the follwing MSN Plus forum:

Now i have decided to start a thread & see what spyware removal software people use! My anti-spyware force includes: Ad-Aware 6, Spy Bot Search & Destroy, and Bazooka Spyware Scanner. The reason why i have 3 is because they can see different types of spyware that others cant. Ad-Aware & Spybot automatically remove spyware for you, whilst Bazooka scans then has a link on how to delete melicious spyware from your comp via the registry.

I do not have any problems with spyware now. What do you guys out there use and have you been successful with spyware removal???

Hi purevibe

I use Adaware, Spybot Search and Destroy, Spyware Blaster and SpywareGuard, all of which can be downloaded here:

Another popular program is IE Spyad, which can be downloaded here:

Lots of choices, lots of protection.

Of course, don't forget to run an AV and firewall too !

Yeah i have a firewall & Anti virus. I use Norton PF 2003 & AVG! Cos ages ago i found animal porn on my comp which wasnt the most pleasant thing to see!

Norton AV sucks me thinks!!

norton antivirus doesn't suck you just have to use it right.
