Run them in that order, SpyBot first, Adware second.

No, it's our current strategy on spyware threads. We wait until twenty or so anti-spyware product suggestions have been posted, then we strike.

Thank you, I’ll start using the keyword search I guess. I liked the older version of FR. Gone but not forgotten. *sigh*

Please tell me, you don't have that automatic iPod notification as the thread approaches 20 posts? That Jobs is just a genius.

I promise, if you send me the money for a new Mac, I’ll run out today and buy it. I can start a Nigerian account if that helps at all. :)

That’s not a bad idea. Right now, I’m experimenting with a new web browser designed for Macs to surf Free Republic. It’s called the “FRowser”. It could do the automatic notifications. We’ll pass your suggestion over to R&D.

I saw hijackthis. It has a trojan remover as well. I don't know what I'm doing so that leaves me out. Layman's terms only for me, broken down for even the simple minded when it comes to instructions on computers.

While Freepers will step forward and help you out, you should go venture off to a dedicated forum for questions like this.
Here is a somewhat comprehensive list that you can definitely trust the source of.
