It's free for personal use, but you have to pay for commercial use.

They both rock! I run them once a week to keep my comp spyware clean and it alos reduces pop ups and boots speed.

You can manually remove spyware/adware, but you have to have good knowledge of your system, the registry and DOS before you should try it, something many people lack, so i see no point in doing a writeup on it.

Webroot's Spysweeper and CWShredder are the best!
