I've probably got the most protected PC in the world. Or in our street, at least. All free.
Been using Ewido (trial program-antispyware) for it's resident shield and general very high standard. (Read several bad things from users of Windows Defender, which replaced the very good Giant application, which has just expired
, so decided not to "upgrade")
So searched for a new application, not hopeful at first, came across this little gem:
http://www.spywareterminator.com/ Interesting reviews + download also here:
http://www.download.com/Spyware-Term...ml?tag=lst-0-1 Don't know for how long this will stay free. It's BRILLIANT. But free it is!
(Running it plus Ewido[till it dies],Spybot's Teatimer, Winpatrol,SpywareBlaster+Guard and Avast antivirus. No conflictions/slowdown.) There is also an option to include an antivirus scanner.(Free) But it seems a bit less oomphy than Avast's, from user accounts.
