Hello and welcome to Techspot.

Here`s a list of some programmes I recommend. I`ve included some free antivirus and firewall programme too.

AVG free or Avast antivirus programmes.

Zonealarm, Kerio or Comodo free firewall programmes.

Spybot Search & Destroy.

Ad-Aware se personal.

Spyware Blaster.

AVG Antispyware.

Ccleaner.

Regards Howard

Those are some good choices. I have always used Ad-Aware, but I'm not so impressed with the newest version.

FYI, some adware/spyware programs are 'find and fix', not prevent. That is one reason why you should 'layer' you security with two or more of these programs, combining both features.
