Be carefull what spyware removal programs you download and use. There are a number of the so called spyware removal programs that install spyware themselves. Spybot Search and Destroy and Adaware don't install spyware. Several of the Spam advertized spyware programs are bad about finding all kinds of problems on your computer and then telling you that you have to buy their software to fix the problem. Don;t fall for the pitch. It's bogus. <br />Spybot Search and Destroy and Adaware have free downloadable updates(unlike McCaffree and Norton) instead of charging you for them. If you run both programs, one of them(I can't remember which one) will see the others virus and malware quarintine file and report it as a problem. Just check infront of the filename found and if it has quarentine in the path, then uncheck it an delete the rest. I have used both programs for a couple of years and have never had a problem with malware since. I found about them because of a computer that was so badly contaminated with that junk that it was almost unusable. Cleaned it right up. Great programs, and "FREE"
