How do I remove AOL Spyzapper, please?
Going to feyword Spyzapper simply gives me a Google-like list.

It seems it can be removed in control panel > add remove programs.
If you click on the AOL uninstaller the Spyzapper component should be listed for removal.

Spyzapper is a built-in feature/ integral part of AOL software that you freely chosen to install on your computer. You can only turn it off but not remove it. To really uninstall Spyzapper, you must uninstall AOL software itself (believe me - AOL software is known to not cleanly let go of itself without leaving some unrepaairable wrecks on your PC operating system),
