Spyware Issues

crystal.goll asked:


For a virus scanner I am using Avira Antivir and I use adaware sometimes for spyware, but my computer has been lagging something terrible lately. Little random things happen, and I know there has to be some spyware or malware on this bad boy. I don’t want a trial thing, or something that scans it and then tells me I have to pay to remove it. I really need some input, please.
Thank you so much.

I have an almost 16 year old daughter. She has a MySpace account and several emails as well as AIM IMing account. Last year she started being sneaky and lying about things so I try to monitor her computer time to keep an eye on what she is up to. The computer is located in the dining room, she only gets an hour of computer time a day and I sit at the dining room table while she is on the computer. She has been IMing someone and I am concerned it is someone older and possibly dangerous for her. When I google spyware, most sites deal with keeping spyware off computers. I need a good inexpensive spyware that will help me monitor what she is IMing and what the person is typing back. Please help.

I need a really good, free spyware removal program. I’ve tried spysweeper, and adaware. They didn’t fix the problems. Pop ups are locking up my computer, I get 12 of them right away as soon as I open internet, plus its making my computer run super slow. Its my work computer so I need it running at peak performance. I know its some sort of spy program that was installed to my computer through the net somehow, but I can’t find it. Please help!

What are some more quality Adaware/spyware removal products that are free? I have Adware 6.0, Spybot, Microsoft Defender, but I am worried I am not killing them all. Please list only free softwares that can be downloaded off of the internet.

I have a Toshiba laptop. I know my computer have been in infected by some virus and spyware cookies. I used to use many different software to scan and stop the infection in my computer, but unsuccessful. Everytime I scan my computer, after 5 or 10 minutes, my computer is automatic shut down. I don’t know why. I think the reason is because when I scan to a specific virus or spyware which is important for running other programs, the scanning software affects to them, so they cause the shutting down of my computer. Am I right? If so, could you help me to solve this problem, and show me another way to scan, kill and stop virus and spyware without cause shutting down computer? Do you know any free software I can use?
