I also bought Giant Anti-spyware before Ms bought them. It was hihgly rated and works great. I heard that MS has decided NOT to charge for their version once the trial period is up this summer.

Webroot Spysweeper, which you can get from www.download.com as a trial is by far the best antispyware problem I have ever used, ever. My friend's dad bought a copy of it and I installed it on my system and I've used the trial to fix many of my computer's friends.

MS antispyware, frankly, it's garbage. When Spysweeper and Ad-aware find 20 objects or so, MS antispyware finds NONE. I'm not sure whats the deal with microsoft and wildtanget and why the hell microsoft lowered the danger level, wildtangent is up there with the most annoying spywares, ever.

This site was brought to my attention from downloading the latest Omega Driver for ATi Radeon over at http://www.omegadrivers.net/. I am very glad i visisted! This is one of the best tutorials i have had the pleasure of reading, even more, my understanding of preventing spywware was minimal and am now confident, after following the tutorial, that i have carried out all the neccesary procedures to block spyware from my computer.

Props to Frank "Dom" DeJesus, for a great guide!

This guide is really outdated now. I would not really go by it at this point, though adaware, spybot and spywareblaster are heavily recommended.

There are some other tools that will be included in the next guide which will be in Zardon's hands in the next few weeks. (Webroot changing their demo/trial version altered my guide too much)

This forum is the DriverHeaven Guide forum, you'll notice all the threads are actually guides that have been posted and not topical threads, if you're wanting to submit a guide there is a thread about this in the list.
