"We are still working with Spybot and we're going to go in this time and see if in fact there are any threats of spyware that has been taken on the computer now. Given this is a relatively new computer here this will give you an idea of how long it takes something to actually come down from the net so we are going to check that out right now. So let's go back and see if we can move the windows right here and what we are going to go for is this top window right here now is search and destroy. Again I suggest to everybody here it says check for problems is what we are going to look at we click that and it is going to start scanning. Always when you use these programs just go up into the help and just check it out and that will show you a lot more f what is going on but this is absolutely going to search and see what is happening within the system and one thing about Spybot is they are constantly working on their product just like AVG and so you have to absolutely tell it to go and check for updates. So when you start your computer and you run it you say go check for updates and then run the search and destroy in your computer sessions. You can run it more than one time and just keep your computer immunized and checked out at all times."
