A very good *free* anti-trojan/spyware/adware/virus tool is http://spybot.eon.net.au/
Has many languages, frequent database updates, online update system, rollback support to un-do system changes, many industry awards. (Be careful with the registry features.) A similar free program, less capable, but still very good http://www.wilderssecurity.com/spywareblaster.html This one is different. It's a small utility that connects to an online database of known spyware. So you can check files before downloading and installing. It does not scan your system, just provides access to a list of known spyware/adware. http://www.spychecker.com General interest site http://www.spywareinfo.com/ If you decide to use these programs I recommend a small donation to those who ask. > Most AV software will not pick up most Trojans. Nor will they often be > picked up by firewalls when they are communicating outwardly from your > computer. That's why there are Trojan scanners as separate software. > I recommend Tauscan from Agnitum (www.agnitum.com). And no, I don't > work for them or have any contact other than as a satisfied user of > their firewall and soon to be of Tauscan (I'm using the trial) ;-) ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
