Try Download.com. I have Ad-aware. It gets rid of adware and spyware and it is totally free. Same with Asquared. :)

what you have is ad-ware, not spy-ware.  spy-ware scanners won't work.\n\nget adaware by lavasoft (www.lavasoft.com)  it's free for home use.

There are programs that you can install that will block a lot of malicious sites and advertisements.  So far, however, no single one has been able to block all adware.  I generally just ignore it, then once in a while I will scan my system with AdAware and SpyBot, as well as other utilities that I've purchased.  I don't like having an adware blocker loaded in the background using up my resources.

Hi there,\n\nSpybot and Ad-Aware can be quite decent spyware & adware removers - BUT they will not PROTECT you against being infected. These programs simply scan your machine once you are already infected and remove the threat. Their signatures and definitions are also not released very frequently and more users are being infected even though their programs are up-to-date.\n\nMy recommendation would be a relatively new security program called Prevx1. This is an all-in-one solution that is proving to detect, protect and remove more malware (virii, spyware, adware, trojans, rootkits, etc) than all other leading security vendors. This is because they use a completely unique approach to protection which means they are able to see malware quicker than anyone else and also protect their entire userbase instantly and in real-time without the need for any downloaded updates.\n\nYou can read more about Prevx1 and/or download their Free Trial from the link below, which will scan your computer and remove any malware for free:\nhttp://www.prevx.com

it's just an ad\n\nbut you should get a spyware blocker anyway\n\nSpyBot Search and Destroy is a good one

As a security consultant, this is a question I deal with a lot.  The correct answer is that there is no one product that does it all -- in order to keep your system free of adware/spyware you will need to run more than one program.  The program you're currently running, Ad Aware, is one of the programs I routinely recommend.  The second one is "Spybot32", which you can download from http://www.safer-networking.org.  Both of those programs are safe to use and work reliably.  Be EXTREMELY careful not to download antispyware products you haven't heard of before!!  Some antispyware programs will actually infect your computer with more spyware!\n\nHope this helps.

The guy that mentioned the adware is probably right. Those types of programs (cutesy cursors, free screen savers) are usually also monitoring your surfing habits and reporting back to an ad server so that they can send you targeted advertisements in addition to the ones you'd normally see on a web site. \n\nYour newer computer is probably more likely to have some sort of adware/spyware blocker on it (Microsoft started including one of its own within the last year or two), and *that* could be blocking the installation... although if that were the case, I would also expect you would see a popup warning message from the adware blocker, so I dunno if that's what's happening or not.\n\nBottom line, though, is your computer is much better off without it. Might I suggest some adware-free smileys?\n\nhttp://paul.merton.ox.ac.uk/ascii/smileys.html
