Howdy\n\nI have two free spyware removal programs.  I've tried both and each of them work just as good for me!\n\n- Adaware Personal Edition - http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/\n- Spybot: Search and Destroy - http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html\n\nI have a few Free Antivirus programs I can reccomend to you.. I have tried all of the following and liked them! :O)\n\nhttp://www.avast.com/ avast!\nhttp://www.free-av.com/ AntiVir HBEDV\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/ AVG Free Edition\n\nAlso, if your willing to experiment (this product as of now is still in testing)\nhttp://www.windowsonecare.com/ Windows OneCare Beta\n\nIf your fine with forking over a couple bucks, I have another solution -- I am VERY satisfied with the current version of Norton Systemworks. (http://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/products/internet_security/nav2006/index.html ). This program is worth every cent, you won't be sorry!\n\nIf you would like to use Norton Antivirus for Free, along with many other tools (Adaware Personal Edition, for deleting spyware) it IS that is possible... You will have to download it through the google pack, which URL is provided here:\nhttp://pack.google.com/\n\nAlso, Check with your ISP (Internet Service Provider).  They are the people that connect you to the internet.  Sometimes your ISP can provide your with AntiVirus for free. (Netzero, AOL, comcast, etc, do.) :O)

WinFixer is a computer program that claims to have the ability to repair any computer system problem. However, due to its aggressive and incessant displaying of popup notifications; dubious installation (installing itself without the user's permission), and advertisements of other products, WinFixer is generally regarded as a bogus adware program. The popup ads constantly display inconsistent notifications to convince the user that something may be amiss with the computer, and WinFixer will be able to fix it, for a price.\n\nDue to these problems, WinFixer could possibly be spyware or malware; however, no authoritative determination has yet been made. However, some computers infected with this program exhibit sluggish performance.\n\nWinFixer's claim:\n\nWinFixer 2005 is useful utility to scan and fix any system, registry and hard drive errors. It ensures system stability and performance, frees wasted hard drive space and recovers damaged Word, Excel, music and video files.\n\nIn reality, nothing seems to show that WinFixer does any of these things.\n\n______________________________...\nI got this spyware and was sooo annoyed, it was about popup every 3 minutes so I got a free Etrust subscription...\n\nIt seems that winfixer is from somewhere in Russia, and is a scam to get your credit card number and personal identifacation illegaly. I made a complaint call...but they didn't say anything...So whatever you do DONT BUY WINFIXER
