recently my computer got infected by the ZLob DNS Changer. I tried using spybot, but it couldnt remove it, as it kept coming back. I would like to know a good freeware product that can eliminate this spyware once and for all. Please give me a url to a good, free antivirus site that will delete ZLob DNS Changer for sure. Thanks
