Totally free spyware removal is so often promised but hardly ever delivered. The popular trend is to suggest a free scanner that will get the job done but then you discover you have to upgrade to complete the task.
The totally free bit generally only means the scanner and is used as an advertising tactic to get you to download the software; the actual spyware removal process costs. But not all companies or their products are the same. Some really are totally free.
Unfortunately though, a number of the totally free ones are also totally useless at spyware removal. They just don't have the means or ability to keep up to date with the latest threats. But that said they do offer partial protection which is better than none at all.
This is actually the reason it's important to use a secondary program. That too can be totally free and used to pick up anything the first spyware removal software misses. This is actually a fairly good way to maintain your system security; though it's not bullet proof.
It's much better and infinitely more secure to purchase a good anti spyware program instead of only relying on totally free spyware removal software. However as long as you pick and choose carefully there are some very good free solutions. In some cases they can be as good as or better than some of the software you pay for.
As long as they are updated regularly and the databases are extensive enough you can get by on totally free software that has good spyware removal capabilities. A number of the bigger companies offer free versions for home users that work very effectively. But again they're not bulletproof and the amount and manner of the spyware, adware or malware you encounter is dependent on your own personal browsing habits.
Some of the more effective totally free spyware removal tools are:
Super Anti Spyware for the home user.
Doctor Spyware
Spybot Search and Destroy
Lavasoft Ad Aware
Spyware Terminator
AVG
Malware Bytes
Any and all of the above are some of the best totally free spyware removal software currently available. Naturally there will be others but free versions aren't always good enough. So it's important to find the best of the free versions and stick to them. Most of the above can also be run in real time so you have constant protection and security. That will help to maintain your system integrity and reduce infections.
