Hey all, sorry to bother you, lately I've been infected with viruses and spyware, and I wanted to know what programs do you use to get rid of these and block them. One spyware program that won't leave me is called Spy Falcon, and even though I clean it up with Spybot Search & Destroy, it just comes back as soon as I restart the computer.
If anybody has any free programs that they use, could you please post me a link or tell me where to get it from. I would greatly appreciate that. Thanks!

"Adaware" gets what spybot misses.
Go to google and type "Free online virus scan"
Trend works well.

There might be better, but those I use.
Good luck

I use AVG for active and scheduled scanning, and Bitdefender for on-demand scanning of particular files or folders.
