I personally don't believe in having to pay to get rid of stuff I
never wanted in the first place (Viri, Spyware). Check out AntiVir
from www.free-av.com. Here's an exerpt from their site:

You'll be amazed how thoroughly AntiVir protects: 

- detects and removes more than 80,000 viruses 
- always among the winners of comparison test featured in computer journals 
- the resident Virus Guard serves to monitor file movements automatically, 
e.g. downloading of data from the internet 
- scanning and repair of macro viruses 
- protection against previously unknown macro viruses 
- safeguard against cost generating dial-up program 
- protection against trojaner, worms, backdoors, jokes and other
harmful programs
- easy operation 
- Internet-Update Wizard for easy updating 
- Protection against previously unknown boot record viruses and master
boot record viruses
- Quality "Made in Germany" 
- support is free of charge via AntiVir Bulletin Board 


And I use Adaware and Spybot S&D. But with the tips I mentioned in a
previous post, I ran Adaware and all it found was a couple suspicious
cookies, which I promptly deleted. Which means I'm 100% spyware and
virus free! (All thanks in part to Windows XP built-in security and a
free anti-virus utility)
