Best Anti-Spyware - Which one?

[s18000rpm]

Which is the best Anti-SpyWare both Paid & free in terms of ;;;;

=>Performance- Detection rate + Removing.
=>RAM friendly- less RAM consumption .

 

[Kiran.dks]

Paid: Counter Spy
Free: SpyBot Search and Destroy

the thing is that "Webroot Spy Sweeper", detected three Spywares (forgot the names ), but it does not put them in "Quarentine" or even delete them .

for these actions, it asks to subscribe, which i dont want right now.

I scanned with ZoneAlarm Pro's Anti-Spyware-> but found nothing, then i downloaded & installed AVG AntiSpyware, which also found nothing.

so whats going on here, was that a False Alarm (or marketing strategy ) by SpySweeper??

paid : spyware doctor
free : adaware

 

[go4saket]

1. Webroot Spy Sweeper
2. Spyware Doctor
3. Ad-aware

Lavasoft Ad-aware Personal does a fine job.

 

[Tech Geek]

Spyware doctor is a little slow but a good one(paid)]
adaware(free)

 

[Choto Cheeta]

in any case Free or Paid.. my vote to Spybot Search n Destroy...

 

[janitha]

It is better to use more than one antispyware because the detection rate of none is near perfect. I personally use Ad-Aware, Spybot, Spywareblaster and Windows Defender. (all free)

 

[Vishal Gupta]

Well! Windows Defender is good enough and I'm currently using it

I have been using Ad-aware for a while now. Free, yeah.
