I need a good spyware program
I heard adware is garbage now and apparently someones got a script going on my computer that sends emails from my account when I'm logged in.

I use spybot to check the registry and programs that load. I don't usually use it for scanning. These things that send out emails and load web ads will keep renaming themselves and when you identify it in spybot you can go after it and tell it not to load. Usually you need to go into the registry to remove it properly.

malwarebytes doesnt scan for programs running in the background either. download a prog called RKILL. it will kill all malicious programs running, then use malwarebytes. once done uninstall malwarebytes and then redownload it to get rid of all infection.
worked like a charm for me on my other computer

Malware is good tho. If you register it it becomes a active resident too. Blocks you from certain websites/parts of websites by ip too. I guess it checks it against a known database of offenders. Good stuff IMO
Ive used adware awhwile ago..Im a fan of Spybot Search and Destroy too. Its also free.
Good luck!
