Ad-Aware SE Personal
Posted: Wed Nov 17, 2004 5:10 pmI've been a longtime user of Ad-Aware ( http://www.lavasoft.de/ ) for removing the SpyWare from Windows Machines that SpyBot can't get.
Ad-Aware has recently been updated, and can now remove VX2 Spyware. VX2 is a particularly insidious type of spyware, which writes itself to the Registry, and locks the keys it creates, making it impossible to remove manually. Also available from LavaSoft, are removal utilities for the most stubborn types, that Ad-Aware alone cannot remove.
Give it a try, you may be amazed how much SpyWare your computer is infected with, particularly if you use Internet Explorer, and have Active X enabled.
