Here's a couple of things to try:\n\n1. Try doing an actual uninstall. Who knows, maybe it will let you! Go to Start>Control Panels>Add/Remove Programs, and see if SpyFalcon shows up on the list of programs to remove. \n\n2. Barring that, the program itself may let you disable it from being used at startup. Check in its preferences or options to see.\n\n3. Chances are this is genuine spyware though and won't give you either of those options. Try using multiple spyware protection programs. Each spyware protection program has its own database of known spyware, so using more than one program will cross-reference these databases and give you more protection. Spybot probably just doesn't have SpyFalcon registered. AdAware is another good free one that I use alongside Spybot. ZoneAlarm is also excellent, but it's not free.\n\n4. If none of that works, try doing a search of your hard drive for any files with names anything like "SpyFalcon." It sounds like this is pretty nasty spyware though, so this probably won't work either. \n\nGood luck!

Yes, here are a couple free programs to get rid of your spyware. Do a full system scan and then remove the items the program finds.\n\nhttp://www.download.com/Spyware-Center/2001-2023_4-0.html?tag=dir

For spyware removal, there are good freeware tools:\nAd-Aware SE, Spybot S&D, Spycatcher Express, and Microsoft Antispyware.  If those fail to remove the spyware you're encountering, you can also use trial versions of commercial products: WebRoot SpySweeper, CounterSpy, and Ewido.  Manual removal is alos possible using Hijackthis.

Please have the patience to read ALL of these, everything I have mentioned is free:\n\n1.Download CCleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ and run it once daily before shutting down your computer. It removes all the trash files that are created while surfing through the net. Use its Issues section once every 2 weeks to delete all the unused registry keys. If you have a lot of Auto Start entries, then you can remove them from its Tools>Startup. But keep the important ones like firewall and the real-time protection shields of your anti-virus and anti-spyware.\n\n2.Keep a decent anti-virus, a strong firewall and two anti-spyware in your computer. Always keep the real time protection shield(or resident shield) of the anti-virus and one of the anti-spyware active. Update them and scan your computer once every week with both the anti-spyware and once every 2 weeks with anti-virus. I have given the links to some free and good anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall; get them all:\nAVG:\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/softw/70free/set...\n\nAdAware SE:- http://www.download.com/ad-aware-se-pers...\nSpyBot Search and Destroy: http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/spy...\n\nComodo Personal Firewall: http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/d...\n\nNever keep two anti-virus or firewall on a single system. If you are already using a good anti-virus or firewall, then you need not download the corresponding one.\n\n3.Keep a virtual memory booster as an auto-start entry. It frees the clogged RAM. I use RAM Booster, which is very effective. Here is the link to download it:\nhttp://www.download.com/rambooster/3000-...\nAfter downloading it, follow the steps:\n*.Cilck on Edit>Options and tick the follow options:\n1.Set auto optimisation on\n2.Show CPU usage\n3.Start minimised\n4.Launch automatically at start up\nAlso, increase the auto optimisation level and 'Mb of RAM to free at auto level' as per your requirement.\n\n4.Keep at least 35% of your C: free. Transfer all the music, image and video files to other drives.\n\n5.Defragment your hard drives(especially C:) once every month. To defrag, go to Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Defragment.\n\n6.Get the free Google Web Accelerator to boost up your computer speed. \n   http://webaccelerator.google.com/\n\n\n\nAll these will most certainly speed up your computer. Good Luck!\n:-)

Use spy sweeper and scan everything in safe mode. Before going into safe mode, make sure definitions are up to date. To get into safe mode, press F8 while your computer is booting up. when you see a menu use arrows to highlight "safe mode" and press enter. when you start spysweeper, go to options-> sweep options-> and make sure everything is checked under "what to sweep?" Then start sweep. Remove anything it finds. If that doesn't work, call 1-866-pcsafety which is a malware removal toll free hotline by Microsoft.

Spybot S&D can be used to uninstall it:\n\nhttp://www.spychecker.com/download/download_spybot.html\nInstall, UPDATE and run.\nYou may need to reboot and run again to clean all the nasties that cannot be deleted at once ('in use').\nYou should also apply the 'immunize' function, since it blocks roughly 2000 known 'bad' runs/apis/apps.\n\nAfter installing and updating, start Spybot S&D.\n\nClick Mode and select Advanced.\n\nClick Tools on the left hand pane and double click BHOs.\n\nHighlight the hijacker BHO and click Remove. Confirm, close Spybot S&D, reboot and test.\n\nAlso worth having as prevention is BHODemon:\n\nhttp://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm\n\nAnd ToolbarCop:\n\nhttp://windowsxp.mvps.org/toolbarcop.htm
