Hi Geeks to go: I know there are some rogue spyware programs out there that are bad. Is Spybot legit or it is bad? I dont have their website on hand, but if it is a rogue program, can you recommend a better one?

Im wondering if I should de-install it from my PC and re-install a better one?

Thanks so much :blink:
