Is you computer slower than usual? Tired of those annoying pop up windows?
I've been using windows computers for more than a decade, and I've encountered a numerous of problems in most of the Windows operating systems, from the BOD (Blue screens of death) to the different printing errors that I don't know why, they always occur when you need to print the most important document of your whole life.
But in the past few years, I noticed that there are sooo many problems and errors that usually appears when someone download some program and install it on the computer, it can be the most cute wallpaper you've ever seen or the ultimate anti virus software, somehow you end up with your computer acting crazy, with pop up windows inviting you to throw away your money in a casino or a very embarrassing porn website that usually appear when you have company and you have to explain how those websites appeared on your computer, or even worse, you might be giving away personal and critical information, such as credit cards and social security numbers, putting your identity on jeopardy.
The reason of those problems is called Spyware, and it had been all over the internet because people try to attract people to their businesses in any way they can, and some of them, are trying to spy on your online behavior so they can target you with more ads and spam than you could ever imagine.
In order to remove the spyware from my computer, I've tried many spyware removal tools because I noticed that it doesn't matter what antivirus software you have, it won't find all the spyware in your computer, because they're focused on cleaning viruses, and spyware software is not typically a virus.
There are a couple of good free spyware removal tools, you can try Ad Aware which is very fast and reliable, it has helped me to remove most of my spyware problems but it always leave some tracking behind and it hasn't been able to remove all the spyware completely, you can also try Spybot which is a powerful removal tool but it's really slow and in order to remove the most of malliciuos software you have to scan it logged into windows and another scan before windows log in, so it can be very tricky.
The best spyware removal software I've found so far is Netcome3, although it's not free, it's really cheap and it does a very good, very easy to use, one of the fastest scan I've seen and found many mallicious pieces of software that I didn't even think they could be damaging my computer and it's very cheap also, which is very important for me.
If you're like me, tired of those problems, you can go to www.yourvirusfree.com and download that software, it will help you a lot!
