i must've downloaded and deleted so many frickin freeware cuz well,, hehe, i dont want to spend any money, like AVG, and spybot(except i cant use it) butif i absolutely HAVE TO, i will. it's so annoying how i go on the websites that ppl reccommend and download the software. when i finally use it, the software scans it and all, but wen it comes to the point of removing the spyware, it says i have to register or enter a license key. if i click on register or anythign else, a site pops up and tells me to buy it. it's either i dunt know how tuh' use the program or i just have to go buy it to get full protection.

Download, update and run Spybot---http://www.safer-networking.org/ . Don't forget to use the Immunize feature.
Download, update and run Adaware---http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/products/select_your_product.php
Download SpywareBlaster---http://majorgeeks.com/download2859.html
SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being installed.
It's main features include:
- Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.
- Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.
- Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.
All 3 of them are completely free. You will not be nagged to buy anything.

Hi Angela,
SpyBot and AdAware do not nag you to upgrade or send money.
They are both free forever. It is true that some programs want you to upgrade or pay. Your local gas station doesn't give away gas. We are lucky as computer users to have as much freeware as there is.
