Computer Guys: re: spyware

[chump]

My computer has been acting funny for a couple days now. It's slow and i've been getting pop ups like crazy despite my pop up stopper program. so i updated that program but i'm getting bombarded with those pop ups.

so i download the eanthology spyware and it detects a ton of it and some trojan stuff. but it wants me to pay to remove it.

does anyone know of free removal??

i thought there was something on here before about that, but i'm not sure.

thanks for the help

Go to www.shareware.com search for ad-aware it's free and should do the trick.

good luck

Spybot is another excellent tool, I hope you also run a good Antivirus program that is up to date...some nasty stuff being going around lately

Agree with kane. Spybot is great, and free.
