Need expert help with spyware?
by Jen
If you’ve got serious spyware on your computer, and you’ve tried everything you know and haven’t had any luck, there’s a forum of volunteer experts waiting to help you at Spyware Warrior. The instruction page guides you through using a few basic programs to clean your computer. If that doesn’t work, you register with their forum, download a piece of freeware that scans your system, save the scan results as a text file, and post the text file in the forum so one of the experts can help you.
If you have any trouble running the scan software, there’s a guide to help you work through the problem. They also recommend some ways to protect your computer in the future.
(ETA: This is an older article. There’s a much more complete guide to protecting your computer from bad stuff in general here. As with Spyware Warrior, all the suggestions in the newer article are free of charge, or have both free and paid options.)
