Help with Adware
Should I download Adware and if so, just go to their web-site to do it?
Recently purchased a new computer and someone put it on my last one but not
sure how they did it - it was a long time ago and I'm so bad with computers.

Thanks in advance.

1. Yes.
Also, try Spyware Blaster and Spybot Search & Destroy.

Let me know if you need instructions.

2. Thanks so much
Do I need Spyware Blaster and Spybot Search & Destroy along with Adware or just
choose one of the three?

3. I use all three.
Some times they catch or block different things.

4. I think I screwed up
I downloaded something advertised as Adware and in conclusion, it's called
Spyware Doctor. I have quite a few items detected but I have to sign up and
pay $30.00. Adware was free. Don't know what to do and where exactly to log
onto for my old Adware program. Thanks again. Jeesh, I can't even get the
first one right.
