Most computers at Gallaudet should have Spybot Search & Destroy software
installed so you can run a scan of your computer and remove any questionable
programs. To do this, you would go to: Start > Programs > Misc
Programs >
Spybot – Search & Destroy > Spybot-(S&D) Easy Mode.

Select English.

Select Search for Updates.

Select Download updates.

Select Search & Destroy on the top left portion of
the screen

Select Check for problems on the bottom part of the screen.

This program may take some time to run, similar to an antivirus scan. When
the scan is complete, click on Fix selected problems.

Select Yes.

This should remove known spyware and adware from your computer.
It is good practice to restart your computer and run the Spybot – Search
and Destroy scan again. Thereafter, you should run it at least once every
two weeks.
