It’s pretty interesting and updated regularly. See this extensive User's Manual for details as well as this AddictiveTips post for some more info: FreeFixer : Remove Locked Files & Apps Left Over Data, Check Viruses
- Spybot-S&D! Version 2.0 (Beta release 5) - I haven’t used S&D for a very long time. However it always was a great go-to tool to clean a system of tracking cookies, malware, etc. So it is great to see that development continues on this legendary tool.
- Ad-Aware Free - Likewise, you rarely could speak of Spybot S&D without mentioning its constant malware-busting/cleaning companion Ad-Aware. It also has seen considerable evolution and improvements.
- Malwarebytes : Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free - This product seemed to be in its infancy when Spybot and Ad-Aware roamed the lands. Now it has fully matured and stomps malware along with the best of them. I really like this program.
