"Comating spy/adware"

I've been fighting the flames of spyware and adware for the passed 24 hours. And despite making it so my computer is workable it is still funking around with my system.

I've got 2 anti-spyware software running on the computer but scan after scan unveils more files making its way onto my system.

Does anyone have any advice here?

I'm also looking for a free virus protection thingy... where would I go for that.

Em, it depends on what version it is. 2004 and 2005 need to be authenticated on the Internet, which you can do 10 times per year I think. So legally you're not allowed, but it will probably work, just refuse to register it then activate it using her activation code.

If you're doing it from the same IP address, would look even less dodgy. But, in short, it will work :).

What a way to spell combating wrong. My Mother has Norton Anti-virus... is it possible to use that on 2 computers?

www.spybot.info, best free spyware thingy going.

Never heard of a good free antivirus though.
