& Destroy can detect and remove spyware of different kinds

common anti-virus applications do not yet cover. If you see new
toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you didn't intentionally
install, if your browser crashes, or if you browser start page has
changed without your knowing, you most probably have spyware. But even
if you don't see anything, you may be infected, because more and more
spyware is emerging that is silently tracking your surfing behaviour to
create a marketing profile of you that will be sold to advertisement
companies. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm in trying to see
if something snooped into your computer, too :)
