|  Like everyone else said, Spybod Search & Destroy together with Lavasoft's Ad-aware. Be careful when trying to find these two programs, there are alot of "look-alikes" out there that will further fill your laptop with useless crap. As for "wiping" your laptop completely, only do it if you have the restore disks for that SPECIFIC MODEL OF LAPTOP. Laptops are not as easy to "wipe" as desktops and if you do it without having the correct disks (which you can get from the manufacturer, call them, they'll send it) you'll find yourself knee-deep in driver-hell!! And you'll want to use your new laptop as a high-tech frisbee. . . and i mean it. |
