You can use SpywareNoMore.
As we all know Computer hackers seeking financial gain rather than thrills or notoriety are increasingly flooding the Internet with malicious software code (spyware, adware, key loggers, trojans). They are infecting computers with highly sophisticated programs that record surfing habits, bank passwords and other key financial data and send them to crooks over the Internet. These programs can be hard to spot, disguised in downloads such as toolbars, search engines, browser accessories, screen savers and other seemingly helpful utilities.
SpyNoMore anti-spyware safeguards your identity and restores system performance through fast, smart and powerful spyware protection.

Hey =)
Personally I recommend you use a Security Suite to protect your PC. I use and recommend Norton 360 Version 4. Not only does Norton 360 Protect but it also has PC Tune-up features to make your computer fast again, protects against ID theft using browser protection and also is so light it is almost like you are not using protection software!
Norton 360 is not free, but it is free for 90 days with no limitations. After the 90 days you can purchase at a special discount price.

If a paid solution is not for you, I recommend you use Microsoft Security Essentials along with Threatfire which will add an extra layer of protection without slowing you down. Both programs are 100% FREE!

â THREATFIRE http://threatfire.com/
Also to protect your web browser I recommend Free Browser Defender (NOTE: You will not need this if you have Norton 360).
For web browser make sure you are using the latest version of your choice for example Internet Explorer VERSION 8, Firefox VERSION 3.6, Google Chrome VERSION 4. I recommend Google Chrome =).

In my opinion, and take it or leave it, Kaspersky is one of the better antivirus applications.
Coupled with a legitimate and fully functional antispyware application, you could do no better for the safety of your PC.
I would suggest teaming Kaspersky up with Spyhunter.

Remember to always keep your antivirus and anti-spyware applications up to date and fully functional.
