Spybot Search and Destroy

AdAware

Those should cure the majority of your spyware woes.

And if those don't work, try to find out the name, and then search google for a program that specifically removes it.

Go with AdAware, man. The new SpyBot Search and Destroy build sucks and doesn't detect a lot of the things that are on your computer.

It does. I havent bought it yet, but I plan to. The trial version works for a long time. Only problem is that the scan takes a very long time to finish.

Apply magnets from rail gun onto computer and HD until spyware is gone.

The above is a photograph of 11 neodymium N45 grade supermagnets. These are the strongest magnets I have ever seen; in one word, they are Dangerous. Strong enough to
crush fingers, drive metal objects through soft wood, or explode on impact when two are released together.

I'll give you a couple common tips.

If you keep getting the spyware back and running windows XP, there is a spyware trojan that hides in the system restore file. The way to narc it is to turn off system restore, run a virus scan (norton highly recommended), and then run your spyware software.
