When downloading windows update, spyware came with it. It appeared that the
only way to get rid of it was to buy the spyware detector and then delete it.
Spyware programs I had would not get rid of it. Through google I found "Spy
Sweeper" which was recommended by PC Magazine. I used a free trial edition
and it worked perfectly.

And what downloaded update was it that had this attached 'spyware'?
How do you know it was spyware? What scanning prog told you this. Did you
get an alert - error - what?
OR are you trying to push a product in newsgroups?
I think I would like to see this evidence of MS issuing and update with
spyware attached?
