You can download a 'free' scan... It finds immediately many spy dingies.. some of which it describes as dangerous.. gives you the creeps .. makes your hair stand on end...many more than either ad-aware or spybot found when I checked a few minutes later... BUT... it doesn't remove them unless you buy ...     There is a totally free version you can download that DOES remove things it detects. Can you check on the download site for a version other than the one you tried.   I downloaded the free one and have been using it this week and it has successfully removed everything i told it to remove. Many of the things that it reports as needing removal are merely cookies, but some of what it has found are actual programs and the odious add-on toolbars that some programs affix to Internet Explorer.   On one computer, i upgraded installed ICQ this week - the version available was ICQ 4. After downloading, i realized that it added an ICQ hotbar to the IE browser on that computer. I don't like it when programs plant themselves as toolbars on my browser. I uninstalled ICQ4 from that computer and will not be using the product.   Whatever you decide, good luck.   love and peace, joyce __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
