Spyware Blaster (http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html) is a
good place to start.

Search and Destroy is good, and free. I use them both.
They search for differant types of malware. be sure to to
get updates at least weekly. These both can be found with
a Google.

Get Ad-aware from lavasoft.com. It is free and very
effective. Choose the basic Ad-aware and down load. Also
Spybot Search and Destroy is good and free. Google search
for it. Don't forget to get their updates at least weekly.
