Spyware Doctor, a spyware and malware detector / remover from PC Tools, professes to remove spyware, adware, keyloggers, Trojans, cookies, and more from your computer.

Spyware Doctor also includes tools to prevent certain malicious processes from running, and to prevent known malicious startup tasks from starting.

Although Spyware Doctor costs money, an evaluation version is available for free on the web site. The trial version performs scans, but to remove potential threats you must purchase the software.

To download an evaluation copy, visit:

Click on the green "Start Spyware Scan now!" button on the middle of the page, then double-click the downloaded file to install. Follow the on-screen prompts during the setup process. If desired, the setup program can automatically run Spyware Doctor when it has been installed and perform a Full System Scan. This may take a few minutes to run.
