If you're still having Spyware problems, you could try Ad-Aware, which you can download for free. To tell the truth, I'm not sure how good it is since I've never had any Spyware problems, but the computer tech squad at my campus used it and I've had it installed (along with AVG Anti-Virus, ZoneAlarm, and Windows Defender) for years. I believe Firefox also has some available add-ons if that's the browser you're using.

Spybot made a special thing for me that caught it all. There is still a problem with my computer trying to load the file during Start-Up, but since it isn't there I can just turn it off.

AVG only worked with SP3 now ;_; so I no longer have it. I have Kapersky, which makes a better firewall than anything. I am kinda mad at it because for something paid for, it missed some common stuff.

Really? I still have AVG on my A22 IBM laptop, which is running SP2. However, I did have to deactivate parts of the suite (the LinkScanner and the Resident Shield) because they were making my fan run hot. I haven't had any trouble with AVG on my T42, either before or after SP3.

I've never tried Kapersky.
