  I am not too sure about free but I got Spy Sweeper from Webroot and love it! 
It was the best 30.00 I have ever spent. I have a 2 yr subscription with free 
upgrades on the program for 1 year.

    speaking of spyware, does anyone know of any free software that can detect 
and easily remove spybots?

    Thanks!

      Please show your support for this bill by writing your representatives 
and senators.

      Last week the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 29, the "Securely 
Protect Yourself Against Cyber Trespass Act," dubbed the SPY ACT. The bill was 
introduced by Congresswoman Mary Bono (R-CA) and cosponsored by Congressman 
Greg Walden (R-OR). The SPY ACT prohibits practices such as hijacking a 
consumer's homepage and keystroke logging. Under the SPY ACT the Federal Trade 
Commission would have the authority to enforce financial penalties for those 
who knowingly violate the Act. Additionally, the House passed H.R. 744, the 
"Internet Spyware Protection Act," which would penalize, through fines or 
prison sentences, violators who use spyware to steal information, damage a 
computer or commit fraud.
