Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.2

Advertisement (Why?)

Spybot Search and Destroy searches your hard drive for so-called spy- or adbots. If it finds such modules, it can remove them and in most cases the host still runs fine after removing the spyware/adware. Another feature is the removal of usage tracks, which makes it more complicated for unknown spybots to transmit useful data.
