Free Spyware Removal

Tools on the Web for Free Spyware Removal

If you're not careful on the Web, you can pick up some spyware. Here are my favorite free spyware removal tools. These are the sypware removal tools that I myself have tested out, and best of all, they are all free.

• Spybot: Spybot runs a check on your entire system for malicious malware, spyware, adware, and bots; then, it destroys them. For best results (and to keep your system spyware-free), I recommend Spybot about once a week.
• Ad-Aware: I've used Ad-Aware for years, and it's a great tool. All you do is pick the depth of your system scan and go. Personally, I do a deep system scan about once ever two weeks, and a "lighter" scan about once a week.

Only two? Yep - I've had nothing but good with these two, and I wouldn't want to recommend something I haven't tried. Please let us know in the forums if there's another spyware removal tool that you think should be on this list.
