    trend micro has a nice free scan on their website.

    also a squared has a good free scanner
    spy bot search and destroy is also really good and free
    and finally i know you can at least get a free trial of adaware

    ad-aware is the best scanner ever

    trend micro is useless, i use it everyday. it looks at the cookies, which is useless when they are deleted regularly.

    aslo use avg, but its not great. i recommend it but could never be bothered to install it myself.

    this is mainly because of hijackthis. its the best spyware scanner cus it almost never misses anything! but few can read it :S

    as scanners, hijackthis. but it has a flaw which is that most people cant read it.

    adaware is better for people who cant read hijackthis. but realy both are good.

    idk why iam saying this, you should have searched for this kinda stuff before posting.

    Best anti-spyware? In my opinion, Trend Micro Anti-Spyware. It has a good scanner, a black list so you can keep certain spyware from your computer.
