Antispyware on W7
 
Can anyone recommend a good antispyware which works on W7?

I've always used Superantispyware but it won't even install on 7. Oh yeah and it has to be free :D

I have other issues with W7 unfortunately . Give malwarebytes and spybot a go. Who is you isp ? I am actually and I hate saying it using PCguard and so far its been ok but its Virgins( but I dunno if it works with w7 either)

I won't use PCGuard as I have ESET Smart Security which has antispyware built in but I like to have others just in case.

just run a weekly or bi weekly scan with malwarebytes then will be plenty. Just run ccleaner before you scan as most crap sits in temp files

For anyone who uses Mcafee (I do at work), they are apparently releasing a patch on Monday that should make VirusScan fully Windows 7 compatible.
