Awola is a rogue antispyware (however not too risky) but still displays false and exaggerated warnings on your pc. Try other free good products such as spyware doctor free to scan your pc of infections and try antivirus programs such as avira antivir personal, avast home edition and avg free edition for protection. Also try a HIPS program such as threatfire for added protection.

Awola Anti-Spyware 6.0 is a new rogue anti-spyware that can be dangerous for your security and privacy. Awola claims to purchase itself in order to remove reported spyware and adware. But in real Awola produce false positives, it have no spyware detection and removal engine. Awola is a representative of badware family. It can bypass antiviruses and install other spyware to track users activity, save keystrokes and then generate targeted advertisments (pop up's, browser hijackers). Never download Awola, it's useless for spyware removal.

avg is a one option out of many anti spywares. awola is not anti spyware. you should trust anything that 'your computer' installed. your computer shouldn't install anything unless you agree. awola is infection itself, here's removal tutorial for awola: http://www.2-spyware.com/remove-awola.html
but i strongly recommend you install some kind of genuine anti spyware to prevent malware like awola in a future.
