some good spyware programs

[Luciel]

so why not just run ad-aware, protects, removes and contradicting you tottally, its free

[copy2012]

Ok, I have obviously stepped on some code here

Sure run them, all I was writing was that not all of the freebies are that great and often will let spyware through anyway. I just found that Xoftspy does a wonderful job of removing the spyware those freebies miss

[Luciel]

nah dont get me wrong mate i mean, what you are saying is that you are recommeding x program that you have to pay for and then install x2 program which is free which does what x program did and then some, right?

Bear in mind no one program will give you 100% protection.

No not really, Xoftspy will remove the spyware those free programs will let slip through when surfing. I only recommended the free program as live protection, what I’m trying to say is, Xoftspy will not protect you while you are surfing, it only comes into play when you need to remove spyware, the spyware those free programs do not detect.

@DABhand, couldn’t agree more

[DABhand]

One major mistake some people tend to do is have more than one type of security program running at the one time.


I have had to fix machines that had virii and serious spyware/malware due to the owner having either 2 or more AV's running or 2 or more AntiSpyware running.


They always conflict with each other and let things slip that otherwise may have been picked up.

this program does it all in one:

spybot,adware,spysweeper,spydoctor

anti virus as nod32 or pc-cillin

Only download hitman pro, install it, click on start and sit back.

Amazing!!
