Interesting post Dominique!
I use a program called “Spybot Search & Destroy” on my computer to hunt for spyware and scumware and delete it.
This is a free program that you can download here:

Like Norton Anti-Virus, they are constantly updating their detectioin rules to find new scumware on your computer.
It’s a great program and I use it on all my computers.
If you like it, you should make a donation to the guy who keeps it going. But it is 100% free to download and use.
I used to use a program called “AdAware” but they have not been very good about updating their detection rules and I have “SpyBot Search and Destroy” to be much better.
