If yah are seeing new toolbars in your browser, lots of popups or your homepage has suddenly changed, yah HAVE been infected with an internet parasite. It IS serious!!! Programs like these are more than a pain in the ass. YOUR privacy is being invaded!!! Spyware has the ability to add more software on your machine without your consent. What yah are doing on your computer is being watched right now. They KNOW what yah typed to your family, friends and co-workers!!! They KNOW what yah are e-mailing to people!!! They WATCH your IM's!!! Hackers are WATCHING to CAPTURE your credit card numbers, passwords and other personal information!!!!



UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!!!!

Hey KMA,

Did you try Microsofts new beta spyware cleaner? I work at a big IT company and we have been told to remove all spyware cleaners and go with Microsoft solution Only. Have you tried it? Any good?

Sorry I didn't see this eariler and I am up to my eyebrows in UNIX, mostly under open source exploring new frontiers with the 3.0 kernel and what little free time is eaten up by the intrusions and break ins like the most recent one on Lexus/Nexus, BUT-

If it is 'Beta' then yah may want to put it on an isolated machine first. Normally, when Micro$oft releases the regular version of a piece of code, they make it so it will not install over a previous beta!!! Just watch out for yourself. Micro$oft will not watch for your best interests!!!
 
Bet on MyBookie
