[OT] Anti Spyware

[retr0n]

Ok, so.... I surf around on these wierd porn sites, and before I know it I get
shitloads of spyware on my PC... I dont really care about them besides this
one that keeps changing my homepage on every browser.

So basicly I need a nice app that will remove all of these, I have tried
Adware in the past but it's always turned out to be shit, I need something
solid this time.

Can anybody recommend anything?

And Hulk the series is cheesy but not as cheesy as the 70's spider man series.
But ya gotta give it to the Hulk hes green like 90% of the good things in life I think the other 10% are pink. ;)

Would have recommended it but seems to already have already been tried according to the first post ;)

Spybot and spysweeper, run those two and you'll get rid of almost all of em.

Except for my brother in law, who managed to bring me a computer with 62 viruses, and 147 spywares and traces...... That bitch never got rid of it.

Format C:
Install windows xp pro.
Change users to standard users and give him administrator password to install stuff, but let them all run as standard users so they can't install spyware anymore.

Problem solved.

yeh duh, everyone knows spybot is teh best, another great part about spybot is the tools, ever use the system startup tool? extreemely usefull, it will tell u what the shit on ur startup does and u can disable/enable stuff and even delete stuff from ur startup its great, and u can immunize urself from spyware

Ad-Aware seems good too... does the job for me

[Crackitakk]

well, theres a difference between adware and spyware, so u really gotta use both, adaware is good thow...doesnt have all the fun tools spybot has

I think you mean adaware, not adware:
