| 412464 | 2005-12-13 21:37:00 | Hi there! Can anyone advice on free spyware removal software or should one just buy one and not hunt for freebies? at the moment I am scanning my PC using Bulletproofs soft. It is free scan, but costs $42 Nz . Thanks |

| 412465 | 2005-12-13 21:44:00 | Well, theres a FAQ on the free anti-spyware software here. Adaware, Spybot. There's Xoftspy, but this isnt free, and trojan remover also removes spyware, but this isnt free either. Just keep windows up to date, dont install dodgy software, or go to dodgy sites. Or download dodgy software, with P2P programs. |

| 412471 | 2005-12-13 23:12:00 | I use the standard suite, AdAware, Spybot and CCleaer, and run scans in Safe Mode and thought the various comps I deal with were pretty clean till I checked into Trendmicro's Housecall online and that found a few more, so a good idea to run an online scan every so often as well. All in the excellent FAQ. | mark c (247) | ||
| 412472 | 2005-12-14 17:08:00 | Thnx =) . Can someone explain to me wat is the difference between a-squared free and a-squared personal? I got a-squared personal 30 day trial, will it go back to a-squared free after 30 days? Thnx =) |

| 412473 | 2005-12-14 19:46:00 | Go to the A2 site and find out what the diff is. I doubt trials revert to a free version after 30 days. Thats why its called it trial. It runs out. |
