			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So you are looking for a way to remove spyware, and you think a windows command to remove spyware may be the answer?  This article will outline the problems with commands when it comes to spyware, more efficient ways to rid your computer of spyware, and what to look for in spyware removal software.  After reading this article you will be able to clean your computer of spyware easily, and without putting your system settings at risk.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">A command to remove spyware sounds great. Of course it does, it’s free, quick, perfect!  But the truth is that commands are more trouble than they are worth.  The spyware today has grown quite complex, and can not be deleted simply by entering a command.  You may think you have removed the spyware, but later you find that the symptoms return in full force. </span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">Many spyware infections have found ways to defend themselves from being deleted.  They lock your command prompt and task manager, and block your access to them. So, you cannot stop the spyware from running.  Even if you have access to the command prompt, the command can be long and complicated.  If mistyped or entered incorrectly in any way, they can cause undesired system changes that could leave your computer running poorly, or render it useless to you altogether. </span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">There is a far more efficient way to remove spyware from your computer. Spyware cleaners and anti-spyware software remove spyware threats without the negative effects of commands.</span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">Using most anti-spyware programs today is as simple as downloading, installing, and scanning.  They do a better job than commands and completely clean your computer of spyware. Software does not cause undesired effects, and will not hurt the performance of your computer.  Using anti-spyware programs to remove spyware is efficient, quick, and simply a far more superior way to rid your computer of spyware.</span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">Not every anti-spyware program offers the same benefits, and not all of them can be trusted to protect your computer.  Many programs, including free spyware cleaners, are not reliable and will leave areas unchecked.  You will find yourself having to run several anti-spyware applications in order to completely protect your computer.  It is better to invest in a professional spyware cleaner so you can be sure no harmful content is on your machine. </span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">When searching for a high-end spyware cleaner, look for reliability, ease-of-access, and support. The program must be easy to use and effective.  Support is invaluable if you run into problems or have a question.  Good anti-spyware programs and cleaners include each of these and are worth the extra time and money you put into them. After all, it’s cheaper to pay a small one-time fee, rather than having to take your computer to a repair shop, or worse, having to buy a new computer.</span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">Commands, in the long run, are a risky and unsure decision.  They can provide undesired results and create system instability.  Anti-spyware programs offer much better protection.  They are quick and easy to use and will not hurt your computer’s performance or tamper with your settings. Spend some time searching for the best spyware products and keep reliability, ease-of-access, and support in mind. </span></p>
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;"> It is better to use a product that will clean your computer of spyware, and continue to protect you from future threats, rather than using a windows command that may, or may not delete the spyware and puts your system at risk.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A lot of people have emailed us and asked <strong>does xoftspyse work with vista</strong>? The answer to that question is yes, definitely. I run Vista on my personal laptop and have no problems running Xoftspyse. Xoftspyse is my top choice for spyware removal.</p>
<p>After using many different spyware removers I still like Xoftspyse the best. We did find some other budget and free <a href="http://spyware-scans.com/">spyware removers</a> not compatible with Vista. One so called free program actually wanted to delete some dll files that I know for a fact were not spyware. So be careful what you download and run on Vista.</p>
<p>When I ordered my new laptop it came with Vista. I heard a lot of bad things about it, but after using Vista for the past 6 months or so I have to say I absolutely love it. How about you? I would love to upgrade all my older computers that are running XP pro to Vista&#8230; Well maybe in the future.</p>
<p>The top 3 <a title="Spyware Removers" href="http://spyware-scans.com/">spyware removers</a> that we reccomend on our main page have all been tested and work great with Vista. You can feel safe using any one of them.</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> If For some reason Xoftspyse is not working right click on you desktop icon and click properties, click the compatability tab and set to run in Windows XP mode. Some early versions of Vista had a problem with compatability. Installing the latest updates for Vista should fix that problem.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If your computer is telling you, <strong>&#8220;Windows has detected a spyware infection&#8221;</strong>, don&#8217;t panic, this article has the solution.  You will learn the solution to this problem, what the threat is, and another negative effect it may have on your computer.  After reading this article you will know how to avoid the threats that are associated with this error message and how to remove it from your computer for good.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">First of all, in most cases, this message is no more than a way for a company to market their anti-spyware products.  It warns you that your computer is infected and will provide you with a link to their website where you&#8217;re able to buy their anti-spyware programs.  This message can also provide links that download other harmful spyware on your computer.  To avoid the risk of downloading even more harmful spyware, do not click the link that the message provides.  In order to remove this message and any spyware associated with it, you need to download an anti-spyware and <a href="http://spyware-scans.com/">spyware removal</a> program.</span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">You may notice other effects on your computer besides the annoying message, “Windows has detected a spyware infection“. Spyware has many negative effects on the performance of your computer, including excessive error messages, pop-ups, browser crashing, poor computer performance and increased CPU usage, (which leads to the constant running of your fans to keep your CPU cool and can damage your system) as well as many other negative affects.</span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">The solution to this is quite simple.  The use of an anti-spyware program to remove the threat from your computer will stop the error message and remove the harmful content.  Many of the multi-purpose anti-virus/spyware/adware programs do not completely remove the threat. That is why you need an anti-spyware program that will target the threat specifically. </span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">When searching for an <a href="http://spyware-scans.com/">anti-spyware program</a>, reliability, ease of access, support, and effectiveness, should all be taken into account.  Many anti-spyware programs, especially the free spyware cleaners, do not provide adequate protection and spyware removal tools.  They may leave your computer unprotected and not delete the spyware you may already have on your computer.</span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">The error message, &#8220;Windows has detected a spyware infection&#8221; is nothing to panic about because it is usually just a way for a company to advertise their products or a link to where you can download even more harmful spyware onto your computer. This is why you should never click the link without first verifying where the link takes you.  The spyware associated with this error message can be harmful to your computer and severely hurt performance. It can be deleted and removed from your computer by installing and running anti-spyware software. </span></p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;"><span style="small;">Many multi-purpose anti-virus/spyware/adware programs do not completely remove the threat, and other anti spyware programs may leave your computer unprotected, and provide a false sense of security.  With the use of  quality anti-spyware software, you can be sure that your computer is well protected and will continue to run smoothly for years to come.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If your computer is responding slow or takes a long time to boot this article will provide you with a few tips on how to speed up your computer. Modern programs use more memory than older software so they use more computer resources and memory.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Make sure you have at least the minimum recommended memory for the software you use. The more programs you have running at the same time the slower response time. To start with you will want to run a full virus scan to make sure your computer is not infected.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Take the programs out of your start up that you don&#8217;t need. This will allow your computer to boot faster. Remove any icons from your desktop that you don&#8217;t use every day. Remove programs from your quick start or task bar that you don&#8217;t need. Doing this will free up some of your memory resources.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">However the number one reason for a slow computer is spyware and adaware. Most PC users have all sorts of programs running on their computer in the background and have no idea what they are. Anything you download or sometimes even surfing online can install programs on your computer without you knowing. They run in the background using up most of your resources resulting in slow operation.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">You will need to do a full scan and clean your computer. While there are a lot of free scanners and cleaners like Adaware or spybot they usually don&#8217;t do a complete job. Why do you think each one of them finds stuff the other one did not?</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">The best thing you can do is invest in a top rated <a href="http://spyware-scans.com/">professional spyware cleaner</a>. The one time fee you pay for the software is well worth the job it does. Plus you will get lifetime updates and support on most software. A lot of them have a free scan you can download and try. Even if you think your computer is clean it will not hurt to run one and be sure. Then if you do need it you can purchase the registration key. No need to download and set up again.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">With a <a href="http://spyware-scans.com/">thorough cleaning</a> of your computer you will notice a remarkable improvement in speed and response time. Your computer will run like it did when it was new. You may put off buying that new computer after all.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Is your computer infected and now you are asking yourself, how do I get rid of spyware? At one time or another almost every computer will get infected with some sort of spyware. Your computer can slow down to a crawl or worse yet your information is collected and sent off to a foreign country.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Trojans and key loggers can get installed on your computer without you knowing about it. They can come bundled in just about anything you download. That innocent looking screen saver you downloaded may have a hidden program running in the background collecting your user names and passwords as you type them.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Your info can be stored in a file and sent off the next time you get online and you will never know it. Unless you preform regular scans on your computer to keep it free from spyware and adaware. Most people never know they are infected until their computer starts getting slow or they get programs or other windows popping up.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">In mild cases you can lose a lot of performance from your PC from programs running in the background using up your memory and making your CPU work near 100 percent. Your computer may run hot and shorten its life span.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">With so many programs out there for cleaning your computer it is hard to know what one to trust. I have seen cheap free versions do more harm than good. They will remove files that your computer needs to run on, making your PC crash and not boot up again. Your only option then is to take it to a repair shop. You are much better off sticking to the top name brand spyware/ adaware cleaners. The investment for a professional paid version is well worth the one time fee.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Ever wonder why program like adaware, spybot, and others all find programs and files the other one did not? Are they made that way so you have to buy their pro version? You really do get what you pay for. Why risk your computer downloading multiple programs and deleting files that you are not sure about.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Professional techs carry one of the top rated paid versions with them on a memory stick or CD to use for in home service calls. They all want to do the job once and do it right the first time. Nothing worse that going back to a customers home to do a job again and not get paid for it. We learned what software programs they use and <a href="http://spyware-scans.com/">reviewed each one ourselves</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My windows xp was running too slow and trying to run anything took forever. I learned how to give my PC a tune up and now it is running like it did when it was new.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">If you have an older computer that has slowed down over the years there are a few things you can do to speed it up. First of all you will want to make sure you don&#8217;t have a virus. Update and perform a full virus scan to start with. If you do not have a virus program or yours is expired do a search for AVG and download it. It is free and works great. But make sure you uninstall your old anti virus program first or your computer may crash.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">No viruses? That is a good thing. If your computer is slow to boot you will want to take out everything in the startup that you don&#8217;t absolutely need. A lot of programs load on startup and use up a good share of your memory and other resources. You will also want to delete all the quick start programs in your task bar. Clean out both the right and left sides.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Eliminate every shortcut on your desktop that you don&#8217;t use daily. These slow your computer down. Most people have their desktop plastered with so many icons that you can&#8217;t even see their desktop. By deleting them you are not uninstalling the program, just the shortcut. They will still be in your start menu.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Next and probably the most important is to run a spyware / adaware scan and clean out all the garbage.  Most people are shocked at the amount of junk they have collected. You may have programs running in the background collecting your info and you will never know it. A good spyware cleaner is a wise investment for any computer owner.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">While there are a lot of free ones out there they really don&#8217;t do a complete job. Unless you run two or three free because each one will find stuff the others didn&#8217;t. Why not have peace of mind knowing your computer is completely clean and safe from all spyware and adaware by investing in a <a href="http://spyware-scans.com/">professional version.</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people never realize that their computer is infected with spyware and adaware. What they do notice is that it is running a lot slower than it used to. Slow boot times or waiting forever for programs to open and start can be very annoying. Ever get so annoyed you want to smash your computer with a hammer?</p>
<p style="0in;"></p>
<p style="0in;">Almost all computers will get infected with spyware at one time or another. If you download programs  off the internet they will sometimes come bundled with spyware. That cool looking screen saver you just downloaded may contain a hidden program that is collecting your info. Spyware can record keystrokes, keep records on what sites you visit and even find your user names and passwords.</p>
<p style="0in;"></p>
<p style="0in;">All this info may be collected for a period of time then sent off to someone to be used against you. They can then steal your identity, clean out your bank account or buy new furniture for their home on your credit. It happens all the time. In mild cases of infection you may be getting screen freeze ups, pop ups or strange programs starting up when you boot your computer or surf on line, ever have your homepage set to something you did not want? Ever notice your computer is working hard even when you are not using it?</p>
<p style="0in;"></p>
<p style="0in;">If you have any of these symptoms it would be wise to scan and clean your computer. So the next decision you need to make is what software to invest in, With so many programs out there what one really works? Do you go with a free version? You can use free software but they do not do a thorough job. In fact they are designed that way.</p>
<p style="0in;"></p>
<p style="0in;">If you want to test that for yourself, download a free version of a spyware adaware cleaner and run a scan. It found a bunch of stuff, great. Now download another free program and run a scan, it found more the first one did not, great. Download a third and you will most likely find more. So is your computer clean now? You will never be sure.</p>
<p style="0in;"></p>
<p style="0in;">Why not invest in a good professional version of a top scanner and cleaner and have peace of mind knowing your computer is completely clean and protected from future attacks. Running a scan for the first time may shock you with the amount of garbage that has collected on you computer. After you re-boot your computer you will notice an increase in speed and performance, in fact it will run like it did the day you bought it. No more programs running in the background using up your computers resources.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Slow computer problems are one of the most common complaints from PC users. There is no need to suffer with a slow PC. If your computer takes forever to boot or you go and get coffee while programs load, you may be infected with spyware.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">At one time or another almost everyone will get some sort of spyware running on their computer, and most people have no idea they even have it. Spyware will run in the background without you knowing it using up a good share of your resources. This will cause your computer to slow down. I have seen some that were so bad it took several minuets before a program would even start to load. Processors would run at 100 percent and almost all the memory was in use.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Eventually these computers would freeze, crash, blue screen or re-boot on their own. If you notice your computer slowing down or maybe your mouse is jerky, you may have a mild case of infection. With the proper tools you can completely restore all your lost performance.</p>
<p style="0in;">You will need a good scanner and cleaner.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">While there are a lot of free ones out there you can download you are better off investing in a paid professional version. Why you ask? First of all ask yourself why are the free ones free? The answer is they are designed to not do a complete job. Their whole purpose is to get you to buy their upgraded version. Hard to believe? Try 2 or 3 free spyware / adaware cleaners and I bet each one will find stuff the others did not.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">I used to run three different free programs and they all came up with bad stuff on my computer. My computer was still slow and after talking to a professional tech I bought a paid version of one of the top cleaners. The one the techs take with them on their service calls. After all, they want to do the job once and move on to the next.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">My computer now runs like it did when it was new. Yours will too. Plus you can feel secure the next time you log into your bank account that there is no programs running in the background collecting your information.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="0in;">Fed up with running three different scans on your computer to detect and clean all the built up spyware and adaware? Investing in one of the top rated spyware removers will not only save you time but it will give you piece of mind knowing ALL the bad stuff is eliminated from your computer. You can feel safe next time you log into your bank account.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Free programs are great if you never enter any personal info in your computer. But the truth is they really don&#8217;t do a complete job. I will let you in on a secret, some are designed that way. The software is designed not to find everything so you feel the need to purchase their pro or paid version. Some are just running on a tight budget since they are not making any money to cover overhead so they cut costs by not updating their software as often as it should be.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">I found the one time price you pay to purchase a professional version of a good spyware cleaner is well worth the price in the long run. You will get lifetime updates on definitions and software so your program will never be outdated.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">With so many cleaners and scanners out there which one do you get? It can get confusing. One option is to find out what the professional computer techs use. After all they make their living working on computers so talking to them can give you some really great inside information. Most of them will carry a version of their favorite software on a disk or memory stick to be used on in home service calls. Time is money to them so they want to do a scan once and move on to the next job.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">Some spyware infections are designed to stay hidden from the free scans you can download then appear again next time you boot your computer. These days it is just as important to keep you computer maintained and free from these invasions.</p>
<p style="0in;">
<p style="0in;">If you notice your computer slowing down or you are getting UN wanted pop ups or programs running you need to scan your computer and give it a good cleaning. Some computers will be hard at work even when you are not using them, Next time your computer is idle see if you can hear the hard drive churning away. You may have programs running in the background that you do not know about making your computer run hot and over work. This will also result in a short life for your computer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Amazingly some people have been running their computer for years and have never scanned it for spyware or adaware. If you have windows popping up, applications starting or running that you did not install or maybe your homepage is now set to something you did not want, you are infected with spyware.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Surfing online or even bundled in some downloads can infest your computer with garbage that you did not ask for. In some cases you may have worms or trojans that collect your personal info or keystrokes and send it off to someone next time you get online. Some hacker may now have your bank account user name and password without you knowing.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Adaware or spyware will also slow your computer down. I had one case where the users computer was running at a very slow crawl due to so many programs running in the background. A build up of garbage collected over a few years and their computer was running at 98 percent just to keep up. A thorough scan and cleaning restored the computer to like new condition.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">As a computer tech I used to carry my preferred software on a memory stick or CD and use it to run scans. I found it worth the price many times over to buy a good spyware remover. After trying almost every free one out there I found they did not do a complete job. You will soon discover this too if you decide to go the free route. Download two or three free programs and I bet each one of them will find stuff the others did not.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">A professional program like XoftSpySe will do a complete job the first time. It is also the preferred software for most computer techs. Free programs do not have the funds to spend on keeping their definitions updated like the paid versions.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Once you decide on and install your software you will want to do a full scan for the first time. This may take a while. You will probably be shocked the first time you run a scan on the number of files that do not belong on your computer. After your first scan is complete you will want to re boot your computer and I am willing to bet you will notice a huge increase in performance and speed.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Scanning your system once a week or so will keep it clean and running smooth. You will also want to update and scan with what ever anti virus program is installed on your computer.</p>
