What tools can proactively monitor my system as well as help remove existing Spyware?
We recommend the use of Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition from LavaSoft. This application will search your system for spyware and will inform you of any questionable programs or processes that it finds. It will also stay up to date like most virus scanners do by connecting to the developers site and downloading regular update so that it will always be able to identify the latest types of spyware applications and techniques. Another highly recommended removal tool is Spybot Search and DestroyThis application is also free of cost and has proven to be one of the most effective of it’s kind.
