Free Spyware Removal Software

What’s the difference between most free spyware removal software and their pay equivalents?

In answer to this, there are lots of differences, but in essence forget about the bells and whistles, we are only interested in one thing, the ability to clear spyware and other nasties .

Just the same with anti-virus software you’ll find that some adware and spyware removal tools will find some spyware and others will find other spyware, so by going for a free adware and spyware removal tool we can run two or even 3 of them, making sure we get rid of as much spyware as possible.

There are of course lots of antispyware packages on the market, but many of these do cost. It’s worth noting though if you run the free packages and still think your computer may be infected, you can download a trial version of a cost version, this will scan your computer, but you’ll have to pay for the full version to actually remove anything.

The Following offers a several tiered approach

Download one or more of the free spyware removal software packages (which are listed below)

Install and scan your computer using one or all of them

Then if necessary download the trial version of one of the pay versions from one of the links on this page, install and scan to see it there is any other spyware still on your computer.

Note..

It’s worth clearing all your internet history and cookies before running a spyware scan as many cookies although harmless can be considered spyware, this can also speed up your browser as well, read more here..

Free Spyware Removal Software

I’ve listed them in my order of preference, just click on the product to go to the download page.

1. Spybot Search and Destroy I’ve listed this as my number one because, unlike the other products it’s not a cut down version, there is no pay upgrade version, you simply download and use, there is also the option to donate if you so wish, which is a nice feature which means you can choose to pay what you like if the software suits your needs.

2. Spyware Doctor Starter Edition this starter edition is offered as part of the Google pack, remember to specify the scan times.

3. Adaware seems like ad-aware has been around a long time now and as such offers a good range of spyware detection.
