I am not seeing where Ad Aware Free version has any Virus removal tools, it has Spyware, Adware, Trojans & Hijackers, Fraud, & Rogue Applications, Password Stealers & Keylogger tools. Only the paid version of Ad-Aware comes with a new antivirus engine. I have used this program before but now I would recommend AVG 8.0 Free with Anti Virus and Sypware Protections all rolled into one. Also Super Anti Spyware as a second tool - http://www.superantispyware.com
