    What does everyone use to remove spyware that is freeware? I use AdAware and it has been missing some things in the registry that Spykiller found. So I ave my doubts as to what to use now since all of them seem to leave one thing or another in the computer. Is there one product that is known to be 100% effective?

    Hi Chuck,

    No.

    To get an idea of the effectiveness of various apps: http://www.windowsbbs.com/showthread.php?t=42249

    Please note that the most effective, Sun Belt's Counter Spy recieves it's definitions from MS:
    If you are limiting yourself to free apps, then MS Anti-Spyware is the one to use. I would not and do not just use one app - still use SSD and AAW.

    Regards - Charles
