Why not try the free Spybot and Ad-Aware. S/B worth a try!

there are lots of free software that are not bundled with spywares. you
will just have to look at them at the right places. and even then, some
spywares are on some websites. so not downloading any software doesn't free
anyone from getting spywares.
