I use AVG anti-virus, and like it. Visting their website, I noticed that they have now released an anti-spyware program.

It is free too, for home use.

If anybody is interested in new programs like this, it can be found at http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1.

I haven't tried it yet - if you do, please let us know what you think of it.


This page is their description of it.

Fwiw, it begins:
"Millburn, N.J. – June 19, 2006 – GRISOFT, the maker of award-winning AVG Anti-Virus, today announced the release of ewido anti-spyware 4.0, which provides comprehensive protection against a wide array of security threats. This new version is the only anti-spyware software to include a powerful combination of advanced security features such as generic unpacking of compressed malware, true memory scanning, heuristics, and use of binary signatures for the most thorough analysis of programs that place users’ computers at risk. "

I've used ewido for about a month. I like it. It doesn't seem to have any big advantages over Ad-Aware or SpyBot Search & Destroy, as far as I can tell. But so far...so good.

How about Spywarebalster?

http://www.download.com/SpywareBlaster/3000-8022-10196637.html
"SpywareBlaster doesn't scan for and clean spyware--it prevents it from being installed in the first place. SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, dialers, browser hijackers, and other potentially unwanted programs. It can also block spyware/tracking cookies in IE and Mozilla/Firefox, and restrict the actions of spyware/ad/tracking sites."
