    I use 3 anti-spyware programs, for different things (all of them in combination is the best method):

    Real time: Spyware Terminator (turn off web security guard): http://www.spywareterminator.com/

    Passive immunisation: Spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/

    Scanning: Superantispyware: http://www.superantispyware.com/

    They're all brilliant in their own ways, and don't conflict.

    OMG why do so many people ask the same question! Just search this qurstion and you'll find a million same answers, but the best free spyware application is:

    Spybot - Search & Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.h...

    Also if u want excellent free anti virus software check out AVG 8.0.100 http://www.filehippo.com/download_avg_antivirus/

    None is "best", what you like or dislike is little based on actual performance. However, while looking for something "best" and "free", you expose yourself to a galore of scams.

    Read this page to refresh your view on the subject:

    And always be very cautious when recommended something "best" - esp. when it comes to anti spyware products.

    Without any shadow of doubt it's got to be...

    Superantispyware.http://www.superantispyware.com/

    And then it' a-squared Free 3.5

    There is very little those two will not find,so use

    both ....maybe once a week or so..........

    Source(s): http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/download/ Edit:I agree with rossng11...spywareterminator is the best free Realtime antispyware if thats your requirement. Edit:: I disagree with Kelly Wright as you will not expose yourself to a galore of scams with any of the three mentioned above. Edit: none of the above are trials. A-squared ...make sure its.....a-squared Free 3.5
