No doubt there'll be a fee, but I havent come across anything yet that cant be cleaned by running any of the free versions of spyware cleaners out there.

Downloaded all the stuff in your key post and gave my PCs a good old cleaning out last night.

BTW tweaknow (or regclean I cant remember which) would only clean 20 registry entries before requiring registration.
