i use Ad-Adware SE Personal
it works great and its free
just go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and search for it
i also have spy sweeper that i purchased, but it works really good
another good idea is to get a firewall
you can also protect your comp by downloading Mozilla Firefox, its the same as internet explorer except you have a less chance of getting viruses
if you dont get rid the spyware soon
your comp will run slower
things can be downloaded to your comp that you never downloaded. you could get popups and eventually your comp will probably just crash

Another good program I always use is Ad-aware SE Personal. Not only does it get rid of spyware ... but ad-aware as well ... ( i know, i know, 'drrrr' ) but yeah, its a cool program and it solves any pop ups u keep getting as well.

that and its free :D

Your computer can crash, get information stolen, files deleted, hacked into, slow down your cpu, and more. It all depends on the level of threat of each virus and spyware.

I downloaded EZ Antivirus and windows defender. Also I have pop up blockers installed.

You might want to download the two window programs listed above in order to get rid of the spyware, viruses, etc before it spreads other little ones and cause a big problem.
