Hi Trevor, A very popular and reliable one is "Spybot" - which is also free. Go to:- http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html and click on the Download link.

Does not have to be screen reader friendly. I seem to have a problem where something is sending thousands of millions of packets out on my ADSL connection and not showing up in Windows Task Manager. My advisors suspect spyware. I've tightened up Norton Internet Security, but I want to make sure I have eliminated any spyware I might have inadvertently installed. Thanks for any help anyone can give.
