Could be it's not the best, but it was thorough. I wouldn't recommend that you run it daily. All I know is it removed a "problem child" for me.

Another one that I used (and this worked where no other did) was eWido Security Suite.

>>"With few program options and generally spotty performance, this program isn't at the top of our list of spyware applications. A-squared Free is basically an antispyware scanner, with few if any options for locating adware--and you have only one option for choosing where you want to scan, either in the memory, the computer registry, or in the disks. There's no option to exclude folders, for example, which can make the process unnecessarily tedious. Installation, too, is a lengthy and often frustrating process. During testing, we entered several mail addresses and tried several mail servers before the program managed to send us a registration code. In general, the program's testing results were subpar. A-squared only found a few of the adware and spyware programs we installed on our test machine, overlooking programs such as eZula, BargainBuddy, and KGB Keylogger. Overall, far better programs are on the market."
