Spyware/Adware Remover!

[Mephisto]

Can someone please give me a reliable and effective spyware/adware remover?  It's getting out of control on my computer and makes it almost impossible to surf the net (even with FireFox).  I also just reformated ~week ago, so I don't feel like going through that again.

The fuck do you do to fuck your computer up that badly?

Hijackthis seems to work well

Adaware?, what ever its called also works well

Staying off male porn sites is the best option thought.

I am very pleased with Microsoft Antispyware.

I use Adaware, ewido, and Spyware doctor.. *blush*

Lavasoft softwares are the best IMO.

I'm simply amazed that you've managed to screw the hell out of your computer in a week.

I can guarantee you reformatting will go quicker than installing anti-malware software and cleaning up your box.

Anyhow, go with Ad-Aware SE Personal and ClamWin.

personally, i only use Spybot and SpyWareBlaster. just run a spybot scan, and after you're done, Immunize. also turn on SpywareBlaster. it helps.

Webroot is ok. You can get a copy of it off www.download.com

Hitman Pro 2.3.3

It takes an hour at the least, but runs like 5+ different Spyware/Adware removal programs.

It'll download the latest installer, update them, and then run each of them.

Among the programs it runs are Ad-Aware, SpyBot, and a bunch of others.

If you don't mind waiting and you have an internet connection... it's somewhat overkill for someone who doesn't get spyware/adware... but runs weekly scans anyways (i.e. myself).

Else just use in conjunction with each other SpyBot S&D and Ad-Aware, also you might want to DL and run CCleaner.

Why are you still here?

Amazingly, I agree.

Anyhow, go with Ad-Aware SE Personal and ClamWin.

First, I don't suggest Ad-Aware SE Personal, because you can go get Professional from limewire, easily. As if they haven't made enough money for a tool which should be free anyhow. Besides, pro has real-time anti-spyware.

Same with ClamWin. It's great, being open source and all, but for the same reson (real-time protection), I've chosen Avast anti-virus.





Personally, I use Spybot S&D, although I've had good experiences with Ad-Aware in the past (although, they have gotten some bad rap, but I don't know why). As for anti-viruses, which you DEFINATELY need if you're getting that much spyware, I use Avast.

To quote Stealth..

The best defence is common sense.

Don't visit male porn sites (kidding, but you get the point).
