Was cleaning up my friends' highly ad-ware, spyware and wateverware pc remotely today. He has been complaining slow pc performance and slow broadband.. lol... there were actually 80 processes running in the background!, 25 startup registry entries and a whole major load of spywares attached to his surfing experience...

Here are some of the stuffs used, done... i would have rather format his pc! but he has this load of treasured stuffs in it... :P Managed to get his PC back into shape... there are still a few stubborn programs running and i have no way of deleting it due to access denied and also for the fact that i am connnecting to his PC remotely :)

- Search & Destroy - Detects and removes adware files and modules from your computer
- WinTasks - A reference site to cross reference the running processes in your system
- Remove suspected program from the startup - Browse to this registry branch HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Run
