Re: any free spyware remover?



Today, with great enthusiasm and quite emphatically, Ghostrider
laid this on an unsuspecting readership ...

Has anyone found a FREE replacement for Microsoft
Anti-spyware? TIA.

What do you mean? Microsoft is a late player in the anti-
spyware arena. One of the more classical anti-spyware and
anti-adware applications is Lavasoft Adaware that can be
downloaded from http://www.lavasoft.de/.

M$ is a late-player to everything! When is the last time you recall
them doing anything at all innovative?

There is also Spybot S&D, which has gone shareware, but can
be downloaded from
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/. (Make a token
donation if you plan on using it.)
