Microsoft
Windows Recommended Updates
Along with virus scanning software, you should be
installing Microsoft's Critical Updates. If you are using Microsoft
Internet Explorer™, Microsoft Outlook Express™, any version of
Microsoft Windows™ or any Microsoft program, you can
get
the Critical Updates here. By updating you will keep your
computer's operating system up to date and your computer's security as current
as possible.
You can run a free scan of your computer to see if any spyware still remains
after all of your efforts to remove it. This scan does not remove anything,
it just checks to see if any known spyware exists on your system. (Should
work on all operating systems, Win98, ME XP etc.)
