Keep PC Safe

Anti spyware programs are going to be the most effective and beneficial tool for you to use in

your fight against all things spyware. In most cases, it will remove most of the spyware and

adware from your computer.

Some types of spyware can pose a larger problem and often be difficult to remove.

Nevertheless, there are some excellent tools available to help most computer users to combat

the threat of spyware.

Programs Available

There are many programs on the market that can be helpful in removing spyware. While we are

not advocating for any one program here, there are several that must be mentioned in order to

learn what these are, what they can do and just where they came from.

One such program is that of OptOut. This program was designed by Steve Gibson and really

became one of the founding tools in the fight against spyware. It was one of the first tools to do

this and therefore was the foundation for other programs that were to come along.

Some of the most popular tools include Ad-Aware which was designed by Lavasoft. Another

program is that of Spybot-Search and Destroy which was created by Patrick Kolla.

These programs have helped many to fight. In fact, they not only removed spyware but they

worked at helping to stop the download of them, too.

You can also look at Microsoft for some help. Just months ago, they began working on a

program to help with this type of protection. The program was for Windows XP, Windows 2000

or Windows 2003, and was a free downloadable program that expired in July in its beta version.

It was called Windows AntiSpyware beta.
