How can I find out if Stealth monitoring software is running on a
computer.  Programmes like Spectre, SpyAgent, I am Big Brother,
Invisible Key logger all claim to be invisible to Norton
Internet/Nirus protection.

Is there a simple way I can sweep my computer so I know it's clean?

I've never heard of anything getting past the security suite I recommend
in this previous answer, all of which is freeware:

Thanks. That seemed to work though I added in Webroot's Spy detector.
That was the only one that picked up Mate Watcher.

How do I close this question and pay you?

Hi mike...

When I wrote my response to this question, and even when I finalized
my answer to your other question (with the same recommendations I
provided you here), I didn't realize that both questions had been
written by the same person.

To answer your query, a question is finalized when an authorized 
researcher posts a response in the formal answer space, as I did
on your other question:
http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=761043

I will refrain from doing that here, since I have provided you with
the same information here that I used to finalize the answer on your
other question.

I would suggest that you cancel this question, and, if you feel that
the information I provided here, and likewise on the other question,
is worth a fee in addition to what you paid for the other question,
you can simply add a tip to the other question prior to rating it.

Best regards...
