My computer was infected with spyware so I downloaded Spybot S&D. I used it and got rid of the spyware it detected. Although the spyware I detected and deleted with Spybot S&D always comeback in a few hours. I don't even have to go online and the same Spyware infections will be detected. What should I do or what freeware antispyware programs work better than Spybot S&D?

DL BitDefender's free trial it will delete all the spyware and protect your computer so the junk doesn't come back! Also get CCleaner to help keep the clutter off your PC.
