http://forums.techguy.org/security/110854-security-help-tools.html here you will find everything free to clean your pc, and then to keep it safe to keep those things from attacking you...
I prefer AD-Aware, Spy-Bot, and AVG... (AVG, will keep the viruses off even if you accidently click a bad link),, The Ad-Aware, and SpyBot you will need to have them scan once every few days to rid your pc of unwanted spyware..
This site is also great for help with virus removal. Just make a post they will tell ya what you need to do... ( Read up on the HiJackThis, as its the most usefull tool you can have)..

Just down load the Yahoo tool bar with Anti spem it is free
Just go to Yahoo search and search for "Yahoo Anti spy" u can easly download it
That Toolbar having an option called "Pop up Blocker" just turn it on to stop popups
u can run Anti spy to find out Spy networks and delete it

First install a antivirus program and make a virus check.
Then install a anitispyware program and make a spyware check.
One of the best programs for cleaning spyware is ad-aware. Download and install it from http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
However, for cleaning spyware, you need to have at least two applications since sometimes they don't recognize things.
Also download Windows Defender. It is an official and free solution to spyware by Microsoft and I can say that it's much better than all those paid applications.

And install Google Web Accelerator for speeding up the Internet.
