    Spybot Search and Destroy issue
    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?
