i hear my computer running even when i’m not working on it, i’m wondering if there is adware running. am looking for a free removal tool that will scan AND DELETE any suspicious adware when it finds some during the free trial period. many of them will find adware, but you have to buy to remove it.

Honestly?
u need to reformat ur pc, back up ur files and reinstall ur OS.
then, download anti-spyware sw like spybot, its free (www.spybot.com)
goodluck
What do you reflect? Answer not more than!
Yeah SpyBot is very excellent and so is Ad-Aware. There both very excellent and aa fantastic compliment to each other. I have them both and are a fantastic one two punch.
I don’t reflect there is a need to reformat the PC. Install Spybot Search and End, update to latest definitions, do a scan, fix all problems and only then reflect about formatting.
Google for Spybot Search and End to get the link..
Ad-aware is the best adware removal program for windows. Spybot Search and End is excellent for result things that ad-aware misses. They both are perfectly free at download.com
The previous commenter may be right; you force have to reformat and reinstall Windows to really clean it. Do this if ad-aware or spybot turn up more than 100 consequences.
If you never want to waste time scanning for adware or reinstalling your OS, the real solution is to get a mac: http://apple.com/getamac/
There exists the possibility that what your hearing is the fan running in the CPU. If you know how, you can call up the task administrator screen and monitor it for a while to see if you computer is doing work when your not. In any event, the suggestions to download both Spybot and Adaware would benefit you momentously.
just because your computer runs when your away, doesn’t mean you have adware. your computer has to keep cool, keep it’s hard drive spinning, and reflect a small bit.
ad-aware >choose use free while installing
Ad-Aware and Spybot Search & End.Both free.
