Hi all I would like to know if there are free anti-spyware programs that you would recommend,

I currently have AVG Anit-spyware...

About a week ago I used a friend's external hardrive and AVG brought up some warning about a worm...and the virus was then transferred to the virus vault...so I wiped it? would this of got rid of the virus or just let it out of the virus vault?

I would like to know if there is any good antispyware programs out there that would be able to find it if it is there?

Help is most appreciated Wink

Masmith.

If you want a free anti-spyware program go for SpyBotSD. It works very well. Just find it with Google. You could also go to this website: www.hitmanpro.com. Download the software and you get much more anti-spyware and antivirus.
