Has anyone got a good genuine web download address that will rid my PC of this fustrating problem without having to format my hard-drive?

I use Spybot Search and Rescue. It works OK but does take a while for it to search but it goes into everything, even finding trackers from those sites that we tell our wives that we weren't in visiting! :huh:

I've been using that Spybot Search and Destroy for about 6 months now. Seems to be the best I've used to date.

If you run Spybot, Adaware, and any of the other spyware programs each one seems to pick up different spyware programs. Try to use at least 2 programs at the same time. Run one and then run the other. I guess you never get rid or can stop all spyware.

I run Spybot and Adaware. Just make shure you update them weekly, Because they update them daily to catch new spy program's and hyjackers.
