i'm leery of using spyware removers now, last week i used Ad-Aware and I removed the shit it found but one thing it couldn't remove and it gave me an alert box that asked me if I wanted to remove whatever it was the next time i booted up. So I clicked yes. I never got back into my computer - cost me 350 bucks and three days - not sure what happened, seems like it triggered a badass virus, not sure if that's possible but it seems too coincidental that the virus went nuts after running Ad-Aware.
i should have let sleeping dogs lie maybe and got rid of the virus with anti-virus software.
i'm using this now

i want software that stops the shit before it gets downloaded but also isn't a nuisance. I was just on mcafee.com looking at their
spyware prevention software. maybe i'll buy it.
i can't wait for the class action suits that are going to come against these fuckers - huge money involved here.
