What's the best free program to find/remove adware/spyware? My now ex-boyfriend had a little habit of going to sites that are of questionable nature, and now my laptop is running very slowly. I've got Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware SE, along with Norton Anti-Virus, which is occasionally finding worm intrusion attempts at least a couple of times a day. I never had that before either - it seems to stop them (a scan is clean) but something's obviously on here. What else should I try? I've also got WinPatrol running, but again it doesn't catch all the spyware stuff unless it runs at startup or changes file associations. And yes, Norton kills speed, but it was running much quicker before, so it's not the only culprit. Thanks to everyone so far, will keep working on it...

how can I remove a trojan and adware from my computer? My computer has been infected by a Trojan and Adware infection. I've tried using different programs such as Trendmicro, Ad-Aware, Spybot, BitDefender Scanner, CounterSpy, AVG Anti-Spyware, Windows Defender. They have been able to detect some things but for some reason it can not quarantine nor remove them completely. I just ran the BitDefender again and it says my computer is infected with: Adware.AWS.A (10 issues left), Adware.VDM (4 issues left), and Trojan.PWS.Lineage.UZH (2 issues left). I have tried to remove and delete them but BitDefender says no action is possible. If anyone knows how to remove these infections please let me know. I've tried all different types of online scanners, trial software but none seem to have the ability to detect or remove them. Only BitDefender has been able to detect those 3 but cannot remove it. I just ran BitDefender in Sade Mode, and the results were the same. It found I had thouse three things again, but were unable to disinfect, quarantine, delete. I'm not sure what else to do. I'll try using the online scanners that you guys mentioned

how do I remove adware that affects IE? Ok, one month ago, i picked up an adware program called Outerinfo. It uses Internet explorer to put pop ups onto my computer. I recently switched to mozilla firefox, got spybot, and have mcafee and fix-it utilities as virus scanners. Since i started using FireFox, i still got ads from IE, all from outerinfo. Fix-it has picked up multiple trojans recently, which i delete quickly. Spybot has removed things like: ie.firewall.bypass mcafee just says that my gamespy stuff is adware -.- I delete outerinfo using search, however, each time i am unable to delete something, be it a cookie, or a program. Eventually, the program comes back. Before i began really searching for it, it would spam with one ad every once in a while, now it has progresed to about 3-4 ads at once. I know i cant delete IE, and I want to avoid reformatting if i can help it. Any tips on any scanners beyond what i have?(free of course) or how to remove this program? Thanks for reading this, I know its long. Help is welcome.
