Spybot Search and Destroy
« on: February 25, 2008, 10:00:56 PM »
Thought I would make a thread for this VERY wonderful application that can keep your computer safe and ad-ware/virus free.  Install it, run it, backup your registry, immunize IE, and actively scan.  Best part is, it's free!  So just download and install it.

Someone mind Stickying this at all?
Btw, it should get rid of that MSN file virus sender thing as well....

Spybot doesn't have a version that you purchase, they only ask fo donations, you're confusing it with another software, and I've been using it for over 2 years and no problems, It will never destroy your OS
