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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 reviewed each one ourselves.
