" Download all of the following helper software and save them to your (now clean) desktop: AdAwareSE - If you have an older version of AdAware (6 or earlier), you must update. AdAwareSE is the only version of AdAware that is supported by Lavasoft. Older versions are no longer updated, and cannot detect the newest spyware. Spybot Search and Destroy CWShredder - Use the stand-alone version. Microsoft Windows AntiSpyware (Beta)"

I can attest to the first three ... no idea how good Microsoft's version is.

microsoft defender (replaced antispyware) is better than adaware for me, except for removing cookies.

i suggest that after you use one of the afore mentioned programs you download spyware blaster. It is a free preventative program.

defender runs in the background of windows and will block things from installing and then accessing the internet.
