The only three tools you will ever need:

1: Spybot Search & Destroy (S&D)
2: Adaware
3: AVG


Download, install, run, be safe.

Spybot is not as comprehensive as it seems......at the moment neither Norton or Spybot can even locate my Trogan

One I stumbled across, which covers almost everything, was Advanced Windowscare. I keep an image so dived into the deep end with the defaults set. It has a general cleaning option and a registry cleaning option. Does a really fantastic job. On their own recommendation, I then run Ccleaner, which seems to find a couple of deeper settings. No adware now or anything else. temp files all gone etc.
AVG Free as my antivirus and I am squeaky clean.

Superantispyware
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

Both are free and excellent scanners
