I Personally use Spybot S&D and AD aware 2007 free. works great for me.

I have also heard of a program called SpywareBlaster But I have never tried it.

-oh and did you remember to update spybot and immunize the computer?

Ad-aware 2007 personal (which is free) works really well indeed.

Ad-aware 2007 personal (which is free) works really well (This word belongs to Jaden Kalin).

Ad-aware 2007, should solve it.

hmm i also have Spybot, but its not doing the job along with the Symantic thing we have. I thought i had tried to download ad-aware and it got me as far as checking for problems, but never actually let me fix them unless i would buy it.

Spyware Doctor, or sometihng like that also the same.... it seams that the virus scanner has detected trojans, but after it delets them, and i run yet another scan a few hours later its like its all back. We have a non stop internet connection and i wonder if exploder is meesing me up here. but i dont think im allowed to change the browser.

Ive tried starting in safe mode to scan, but spy bot wont come up...

Ya, I haven't used ad-aware for awhile but when I did use the program it worked really well. There should be a new, updated version so now it is totally pwnage.  ;)

Try using a-Squared Free edition
 http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/

I use this in addition to Ad-Aware 2007 & Spybot S&D. a-Squared has detected a lot more for me, so I hope it works well for you.
