===============================/:
The industry leader is Webroot Spysweeper which does about the best.
The other two rivals (these are all rated top three) are Trend Micro
Antispyware and CounterSpy.

Another doing very well is PC Tools SpyDoctor. These top products all
have shields - real time protection that is necessary and combined
with real time antivirus and a firewall for the top protection the
average consumer can purchase and use.

Spyware is like a virus or worm in that you would want to stop dead in
its tracks before it does damages. With spyware - you want that
stopped before it spies and transmits. This is why the real time
protection software programs are expounded on as opposed to using free
programs that do not offer real time protection - scanning after
infections to remove them and after the damage is done - either to the
computer system or personal informations.

Bottom line - ask around about Webroot Spysweeper.... I have been
using it for years and Trend Micro Antispyware (both catch the most).
