Clive, return from the link you posted:

"OOPs I can't find that page"

Charvie,

google MBAM (Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware). It's the best out there at the moment and it is fully functional. The only difference between paid and free is autoupdates, right click context menu and resident scanning I believe.

I also like SAS (SUPERAntiSpyware)

I agree with btk1w1 MBAM and SUPERAntispyware are good choices , A few more are Spy-bot s&d , SpywareBlaster is good , it does not scan for anything but protects you form malicious Activex,s
I have found the best place to look is www.majorgeeks.com you will find top freeware pick's on the right of the first page .

I like Spybot too Jack, but I found because it runs resident it caused a little bit of lag with my old P4.

I traded it for WinPatrol by BillP Studios. Does the same thing without the spyware scanning function. Alerts you of system changes etc though.

Have you looked at it? If you have what do you think?

No probs charvie,
