Spyware can be defined as that particular kind of malware that is being installed on someone's computer without their knowledge or consent and which really "spies" on everything that is being done on that computer. It can wait until you log on to some online access of your bank accounts for example and copy your user and password and then send the information to the person who installed it.
The person installing the spyware has remote control over the infected computer and can do a lot of things there like deleting important files, changing settings or performing other annoying tasks. Anyway some companies have installed spyware on their employees' computers in order to monitor their activity, but that is a different topic already.

I showed you in the lines above that spyware can be a very dangerous thing, so that it determined the invention of anti-spyware tools that help you identify such malicious software and totally remove it from your computer.But before purchasing such software it is better to take some basic precaution measures: never access the internet without a solid protection offered by an antivirus software, never install any kind of software if you are uncertain about its origin and safety, never read or download attachments from emails coming from unknown addresses. Only after that find some free anti spyware software to help you detect any spyware on your computer and remove it permanently.
So, even if you want to use a free software tool , that doesn't mean you have to accept any kind of antispyware and also accept it to have very few features. First it is important to be easy to install and to use, even for the most unprofessional guys like me, using a simple language and simple and effective instructions. Then it is very important that this software be very effective both at detecting and completely removing the spyware or any kind of malware from your computer and also offer real time protection.
Then it is very important to be able to remove the spyware totally , even if that means removing some of your files (of course it has to let you know which ones). It is also important that this anti spyware software does not affect the speed of your computer and slow it down more than it is necessary, as it can get annoying, especially when using the internet. Another thing is the amount of time it takes to completely scan the computer for malware and if you can still use your computer during scanning. I know I am being very demanding with free software, but why should we be content with less when we can have more?

Here are some examples of totally free software tools used to remove spyware completely: Spybot Search&Destroy - it can detect and remove different kinds of spyware from your computer, it is very popular and effective. It can be used together with a program like Add-Aware in order to make thei job even more effective and cover all bases.
