5 Steps to Remove Spyware for Free
Have you ever tried to remove Spyware off your PC only to
find out it never left or it came back? Tired of all those
annoying Popups, Viruses, and Ads on your system day in and
day out? Well, listen closely because the day has come to
remove Spyware programs and Viruses - forever!
I will give you some very useful tricks and tips to remove
Spyware and Viruses for good! Follow closely:
Steps to Remove Spyware, Viruses, and Adware
1. There are many types of software available today that
claim to remove spyware off our system, but which one REALLY
does the job? What you need is software that not only will
remove spyware, but TOTALLY removes it for good and keeps it
off. After searching for the best of the best, here is THE
BEST: Panda Online Scan. Why? It does not constantly run
on your system, slowing it down and using bunches of memory!
In other words, it runs from Panda on the web, then searches
your whole system, will remove spyware and other bugs, then
gives detailed info on the bug and tells you how to keep it
off your system! Here is the address to get started:

It only installs a few plug-ins to run on your system, and
no full installation!
2. Check your system services and systray items! The
biggest mistake people make is never checking what programs
are running in the background or memory of the system. A key
step to remove spyware from your system is knowing this.
Without knowing these things, you probably have bugs running
on your system, and never know it! Why? They like to hide!
Download and install a program called HIJACK THIS. It tells
you exactly what is running and what is not running so you
know exactly what might be hiding behind closed doors! Here
is the address for this:

3. Shutdown the SYSTEM RESTORE! (Windows XP)
Spyware and Viruses attach themselves to your system’s
restore files. This is an easy way for them to hide, even
after you reinstall Windows! Right click on ‘MY COMPUTER’,
then click on ‘Properties’. Look for a tab on top called
‘System Restore’, and click there. Check the box that says
‘Turn off system restore on all drives’. Click ‘APPLY’,
then ‘OK’. That’s it!
4. Use an Anonymous IP address when surfing the web!
This is a huge step in keeping bugs off your system forever!
Bugs get onto your system and retrieve info about you by
capturing your IP address. Your IP address tells everyone
who you are, where you’re located, your system info, what
kind of Windows you use, your browser, etc. An anonymous IP
hides your IP by using an Anonymous address and makes you
invisible to everyone, including Spyware and Ads! Here is an
address to a good proxy list:
http://www.stopspywareforfree.com/proxylist.html
Please follow these instructions carefully for Microsoft
Internet Explorer:
a) Scroll down on the page from the above link. On the
list, look at the numbers listed under IP:Port Host name.
Make sure the uptime on the right is at least 97 to 99 %.
b) Go to the Control Panel in Windows.
c) Open up ‘ Internet Options’.
d) Click on the ‘Connections’ tab on top.
e) Click on ‘LAN Settings’.
f) Put a check-mark where it says PROXY SERVER.
g) In the Address box, copy and paste the IP address listed
on the proxy list (for example: 148.244.150.58 - These are
the numbers shown BEFORE the ‘:’ (semi-colon).
h) Copy and paste the port number into the PORT box (for
example: ‘80′ - the number immediately after the
semi-colon).
i) Click OK, and OK again to close, and close everything.
j) Go ahead and open up your browser and try surfing the
internet to test.
Thats it! You are now surfing invisibly!
For the Firefox browser:
a) Open up the browser and go to ‘TOOLS’ then ‘OPTIONS’.
b) Go to ‘GENERAL’ on the left, then click the ‘Connection
Settings’ button below.
c) Choose ‘Manual’ proxy config from the choices.
d) Check the ‘use the same proxy’ checkbox.
e) In the ‘HTTP Proxy’ box, copy and paste the anonymous IP,
and the PORT number in the PORT box (remove the zero first).
f) Click OK, then OK again to close.
g) Now test your browser by surfing the web.
You are now invisible.
**note - if your browsing gets super slow or has a problem,
look for another IP and Port number on the list and try
again. Most of the time the proxies from Mexico work best.
Happy surfing! The free proxy list can be found here:

5. Download and install the new FIREFOX browser!
Please get rid of Microsoft Internet Explorer on your
system! It is like a pipe that feeds Spyware, Ads and
Viruses onto your system. There are just too many holes
there letting everything in. Mozilla is a fairly new company
that introduced a new breed of browser that blocks popups,
and tries hard to keep these bugs off your system. It has
very few or even NO holes or pipes to let the bugs in! Many
people use it for this very reason, and it has a great look,
better speed, and lets you change the theme of it! Awesome!

Spyware, Adware and Virus Removal First Steps Get Rid of Temporary Files
There are many software programs available designed to remove Viruses, Spyware, Adware and other nasties from your computer. Uneducated users simply run these programs in the mistaken belief that once they do, all is well.
For the best results, and to optimise computer performance and efficiency, it’s best to eliminate the many temporary files and temporary Internet files that build up on one’s hard disk over time.
Temporary Internet Files result simply from visiting web sites. Each web page usually consists of a number of individual elements, including one or more images. A typical business page is made from a large number of individual images, even if only a single image is visible when the page is fully loaded. Each of these images is stored on your hard disk in the Temporary Internet Files folder, also known as the Internet Cache”. Other elements such as cookies and multimedia files are also stored here. Particularly useful in the early days of the Internet when only dial-up accounts were available, the use of this cache idea helped speed up access to web pages on the second and subsequent visit. Because images and multimedia objects take a lot longer to download than text, once they were stored in a local cache, they would be displayed directly from the hard disk, and didn’t need to be downloaded again. Web access was therefore a lot faster. There appears no way of automatically deleting these files, and so the number increases constantly.
Temporary Files appear for other reasons. In the course of normal operation by some programs, they require “working space” and will create one or more temporary files. When programs are installed, particularly from zipped or compressed files, they usually need a temporary storage area in which to store files during the installation process. It would make sense in both these cases, for the programs to delete the temporary files when finished. However, it seems that in a lot of cases, the obvious doesn’t happen.
Why should we care that we have all these unwanted files on our hard disks?
Firstly, they do take up disk space unnecessarily, and secondly they reduce the performance of our computers. But in the context of viruses, spyware, adware, malware and other nasties, there are two reasons why all these temporary files are unwanted.
Most of the “nasties” mentioned above, apart from viruses, infiltrate our computers whilst visiting websites. Objects downloaded from web sites sit on our hard disk in the Temporary Internet Files folder. Deleting these files, therefore, is the first step to eliminating nasties. Some viruses and nasties will install themselves, or a copy of themselves in the Temporary folder where no-one can find them. Have you ever run a virus or spyware scan only to find that the culprit comes right back afterwards? The other reason to delete these files … and there could be a great many of them over time … is to minimise the time the scanning software has to run by reducing the number of files it has to scan.
Fortunately, Windows gives us a simple method to delete these files.
Click on “Start” and “My Computer”. With the right mouse button, click on your primary hard disk, usually the C: drive, known in Windows XP as Local Disk (C:). In the menu that opens, click on the “Properties” selection at the bottom. The window that opens will display a graphically representation of your hard disk showing the total space, and the amount used and free. On the left is a button called “Disk Cleanup”. Press that button.
Windows will now check your hard disk and open another window showing how many temporary and temporary Internet files there are. If you click on “ok”, Windows will proceed to delete those files. It’s safe to do so. The recycle bin is also listed, and if you haven’t emptied it for a while, now is a good time to do so. Leave the other options unchecked.
Your virus scanning software and “anti-nasties” programs will now run more quickly, and in fact, you might find your whole computer seems faster and more responsive.
There is one limitation of the Windows built-in file cleaner though: it often doesn’t delete all files, and the only way of doing it is to manually delete them. That’ll be covered in a future article.

Adware Spyware Removal Tool
Pop-up ads are certainly great annoyances that a user comes across while surfing the Internet. Many websites use pop-ups for advertisement. While some banners simply disappear, others seem to persist. Adware is often responsible for this persistence. Adware is software that tracks the user’s surfing patterns and displays pop-ups. Since it spies on the user’s keystrokes, this software is often grouped with spyware. Numerous security software companies provide adware spyware removal tools to deal with the annoying advertisement windows. A standard adware spyware removal tool not only removes adware and spyware, but also deals with many other forms of malicious software that work in the background without the user’s knowledge. Many adware spyware removal tools provide protection from data-mining, aggressive advertising, trojans, browser hijackers, and unwanted dialers.
Adware spyware removal tools are also available for free, usually on Web sites of security software companies. Adware spyware removal tools are sometimes made available as part of anti-virus software packages. The installation process is simple, requiring just a few clicks. Apart from removing adware, these tools also monitor the network to prevent more adware from entering the computer. Adware spyware removal tools, however, do not deal with the problem of viruses.
Adware spyware removal tools perform a variety of functions. They scan all fixed and removable drives, memory, and repair the windows registry. Most tools use the Code Sequence Identification (CSI) technology to detect and kill malignant software. Aggressive spyware and malicious contents are removed. Many adware spyware removal tools provide full quarantine support. They protect against bandwidth stealing programs and enhance your computer’s overall performance. Passwords, credit card numbers, and other vulnerable data are made secure. Fake adware spyware removal tools can do more harm than good. Most fake software packages are carriers of malignant programs.
