A co-worker and I were talking about computers and one thing led to another (comparing notes about OS, ISP, spyware, firewalls...) and she suggested going into Microsoft and download their spyware removal. So I did a Google and found the site. I dowloaded the program for their
free scan. It found like 172 things that my paid version fo Ad-Aware didn't find. When I went to do the quarantine / removal thing, I got directed to their ad to pay for a program to remove the spyware. I shoulda known it wasn't really free! And as of yesterday, my Zone Alarm began making this magnanimous gesture to do a free scan and remove spyware. Same thing happened. They were just trying to sell me stuff. I hate to ask what stuff their programs were finding that my paid Ad-Aware isn't. Would you know anything about that?
