Spyware

[Cornelious]

What is spyware and how do I get rid of it, if indeed I need to?

Spybot Search and Destroy: http://security.kolla.de/

CWShredder should be run first because AdAware or Spybot S&D can complicate matters if any variety of CoolWebSearch is present. Be sure to update SSD before running its' check for problems and use Add/Remove programs first (reboot after each) then let the programs clean up any leftovers.
