RE: Adware



There are many good programs to get rid of these buggers:

Pay for Anti-Virus - my favorite is Norton Anti-virus

Free Anti-Virus - my favorite is AVG, although I've heard that Avast is good
also

Pay for Anti-Spyware - the best that I've heard of is Counter Spy

Free Anti-Spyware - the best (and I use it) is the Microsoft Anti-Spyware
Beta. Others include: AdAwareSE, SpyBot Search and Destroy, BHO Daemon,
MVPS Hosts file, IE SpyAd, SpyWareBlaster and Spyware Guard (all are free)
