MS Antispyware eliminates Ad/Spy/Malware, but isnt as good as Webroot's Spysweeper.

But chaganlal1was asking for a utility for cleaning up windows and unecessary hard drive junk. Try Window Washer, also by Webroot. www.webroot.com

Norton Cleansweep has effective clean-up tools as well.

Both work great. I personally use Cleansweep for weekly or once-in-a-while cleaning up.

Spybot and Microsoft are good antispywares too. I'm trying to think of a light weight antivirus like Avast...go to MajorGeeks.com and look around.

I'm not so sure about that.

CallForHelp (a computer show on g4techtv) has a chart about the free spyware things and it has MS Antispyware as one of the best. But it only detects about half the spyware on a comptuer.

registry mechanic is great, Spyware doctor is also great, spybot s&d, microsoft antispyware, norton antivirus are really good for the most part. But if you're lookin to just kinda maximize space, defrag your comp. hope I helped! Oh, and all of those programs you can get for free (exceot norton), not trials either, you just have to search.
