Re: Spyware drama!

["Reinaldo UOL" <rabarbaro () uol com br>]

Try SPYBOT Search & Destroy - if i'm not confused, there's a link in the pages to a net tool that does it. By the way 
this tool is excellent (in my opinion - ok) for stand-alone micros. And it has many translations (portuguese included).

But see also FAQ # 026 (on the spybot search & destroy's help to have a more explaned question answered about the 
advantages/disadvantages of doing such scan using a server ok) (it's also translated to portuguese (of brazil)) :-) - 
enjoy !!!

P.S. - A suggestion either - Try to have an explanation (and know what are the skills/tools that you have to take) on 
blocking and/or filtering content perhaps using a PROXY and ROUTER/NAT. I'm NOT a security expert but there's a lot of 
them here in the lists of Security Focus...

You can also visit and join (and question your doubts) in the "REDEWAN" list. (It's a list moderated about 
routers/switches/bridges, admin's policy, security, etc... manteined by Gilberto Biasotto in PORTUGUESE.
