The HONEST TRUTH HERE\n\nIf he paid for a program and installed it on your compute to record what you are typeing then you are SOL.  NO ANTI-SPYWARE program will find it.  I don't care what program it is.  If he paid a lagit site for the program and installed it on your computer then he knows what your up too.  But here are some way most of them work.  Press CNTRL+ALT+SHIFT+X  The X can be any letter between a-z.  I know about this because I use programs like this at work to spy on my employees that I think might be moles and I have tested it out trying to find it after I have installed it and hide it with all the major players and the free-bies out there and nothing found it.  This of course what the most updated ones.  You can imz me if you have any other questions.

No, they tread a fine line. You technically agree to everything when you download. IT's a bit sleazy.\n\nBut they don't monitor what you do, or take your personal info, so it's not spyware. Just ANNOYWARE.

Some anti-spyware program do come with their own spyware.\n\nBy using any free program on the Net, there is a chance that they might contain some spyware.\nIf they have an ad on them each time you start them, it is spyware. Any form of advertising is spyware.\n\nThe best and only anti-spyware you should use is Spybot. And it is Free.

All of these are ones that I personally use and all are free.\n\nAVG Removes I-Worm/Stration · BackDoor.Generic3.GBB and .GBC · Worm/Generic.FX · Exploit.WMF\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/tpl/v5\n\nSpybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/\n\nhttp://superantispyware.com/\nSUPERAntiSpyware is the most thorough scanner on the market.

you have a browser hijacker, a form of adware, download adaware from download.com and clean your computer, it would not hurt to get spybot from the same place and use it also, they are both free

Hi Sagebrush,\n  I'm not an expert and I do love my SPYBOT SEARCH & DESTROY anti-virus app. But I think you may have a good one there. It may have been installed before you bought your pc. Did you purchase it used? \nHere are some of the companies that use this:\nBarracuda Networks is the leading provider of enterprise-class spam firewall solutions for comprehensive email protection.

You did not say what program you are using.\n\nIf you are using Spybot Search & Destroy, you just have to click the "Fix These" button. If you are using Ad-Aware, just check all the boxes and click "next".\n\nThe value if using a reputable program is that you can trust it's judgement.

It is usually bundled with spyware, adware and trojans. Get yahoo! widgets instead.

To the best of my knowledge Limewire does not contain any adware or spyware. Download Spybot Search & Destroy and Lavasoft Ad-aware. Run a full scan with both and see if they detect anything. If they do uninstall the version of Limewire that you have and install the latest version. Many P2P program do contain adware and effectively open a connection to your PC. \nAs most anti-spyware programs work from a database of known threats, yahoo anti-spy should be using known information, although all these types of programs can make mistakes.\nMaybe the version of Limewire that you have has some security issues. Use the information as a possible threat and carry out more tests before removing Limewire.
