You could try Ad-Aware 2007 7.0.2.3 that you can download from;

http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10045910.html

There is also Spybot - Search and Destroy from;

http://safer-networking.org/en/

you could also look at the Avast site on;

http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/downloa...t-home-edition

Be careful where you download from though, there are some very plausible "lookalikes" out there.

Me three. Run 'em both once a week, sequentially. I've used them both for years now.

Hint though - do NOT install the optional SpyBot monitoring function, though - it has not been perfected and can piss around with your registry.
