You should download SuperAntiSpyware. It will remove any and all spyware. It is VERY effective and it is free.

And a tutorial on good practices on staying safe on the internet:

If you think you may be still infected after using the below programs and want an expert to help you for free, you can post a hijackthis log at my forum. Instructions for doing so can be found here:

Commercial Products which are very good are:

AV: Kaspersky, Nod32
Antispyware/malware - Ewido, SpySweeper, SpyDoctor

Hope this helps.

While security is always a concern on the internet, I believe there is such a thing as too much security. For the last 5-6 years I’ve been using just three programs, all of which are free. Avira Anti-Vir, Ad-Aware and Spybot S&D. All of them are updated regularly and seem to do a good job. In those 5-6 years I have only had one virus and no problems with any malware. Going by the programs you listed, I’d say you’ll probably be fine as is.
