    Portable AVG Anti Spyware


    Why?
    well... I have never used the portable version, I use the "regular" one, and it's great! finds everything (better then ad-aware and spy-bot imo, best anti-spyware I used so far)
    And it's portable, which means it's a stand-alone app (you don't have to install it, doesn't send thing to the registry, small size)...

    You can take it on a disc(on-key?), use it in your client's computer () and go away without leaving anything behind (including spywares )

    Best solution imho...

    Coming from a computer technician (I've worked in a maintenance shop for a year and in the IT field for 2 years before that):

    Start with Spybot S&D, it usually takes care of the problem

    If Spybot isn't able to remove everything, or if it comes up clean and you are still seeing clear symptoms of infection move to Ewido and / or AdAware.

    Also keep in mind that a large majority of Spyware programs out there now days are coupled with/installed by 'Downloader.' class viruses. If you don't get rid of the viruses first removing they spyware doesn't do you any good as it will be reinstalled by it's partner virus
