Hi ,check the link in my signature of Rouge Spyware tools it makes the list .
this is what it says about it .
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
aggressive, deceptive advertising (1, 2); questionable license terms; false positives work as goad to purchase (1, 2, 3, 4); same app as SpyBurn; Ad-aware knockoff - (Note: other domains associated with XoftSpy -- most of which were formerly associated with SpyHunter -- include: adware-destroyer.com, adware-elimination.com, adwarekillers.com, adwares.net, anti-adware.net, antispywares.com, deletespyware.net, removespyware.net, softspy.net, softwho.com, spyware-detection.net, spywareprof.com, spywarepurge.com, spywarerem.com, spywareremoval.net)

Caperjack is correct, don't waste your money on Xoftspy, free programs such as Ad-Aware and SpyBot are better.

hi there well i do know aby Xsoftspy. i have it on my pc but it is an unregistered copy. obviously i need to pay to get it registered 1 thing which i dont wanna do. so i can only scan my pc wothout the possibility of ever removiing those nasty spies. any body have any suggestions of A FREE SPYWARE AVAILABLE ON THE NET AND WHICH IS EASILY DOWNLOADABLE!!1
ALL SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME :p

dlh6213 just listed the two most-recommended tools: Ad Aware and SpyBot. Links to their download sites are in my sig file below.

You don't want to remove the things Xoftspy finds anyway, some of them are legitimate files (they do that just to make it look like you have more problems then you really do, I think). It would be best to just get it off your system entirely.

is it necessary to have an antispyware software

It's a good idea to, and to use it regularly. Ever since I have started using Adaware and Spybot on a weekly basis, I have had very little problems with spyware on my computer. I also has Spywareblaster installed also. And also be sure to keep each program updated regularly, or it won't do you much good. Between Adaware, Spybot, Spywareblaster, and a good antivirus program, you should be ok.

wat6 does a spyblater do generally. p[lease in simple language!!11

Unfortunately, these days it seems anti-adware and anti-spyware programs are required. They used to be just irritating, but now they're getting downright harmful.

Spybot and Ad-Aware both work by comparing the files on your system to a known database of adware and/or spyware. The reason for frequent updates, as DeOnna recommended, is to keep your database up to date with all the known files. Neither of them is complete, that's why you need both. Even with both, they won't find everything, but you'll be better off then you would be without them!

SpywareBlaster is another good thing to have; it works in a different way then the other two. It takes known malware sites and adds them to the Restricted Zone of your browser, thereby keeping the nasty stuff from ever getting to your system in the first place. This also needs to be updated frequently to provide the best protection. Links to these are also in DMR's signature.
