Must say I'm not a huge fan of SpywareTerminator. If you do elect to install it, I'd suggest opting out of the "WSG" (web security guard, which installs the Crawler toolbar) and also the Clam AV. Think twice before activating the HIPS, also, it can produce popups that the average user may not know how to correctly deal with.

MBAM and SAS are the current "rock stars" of the antispyware world. AdAware (BTW, your defs are pretty old) is, in my opinion, not worth the disk space nor resources it uses.
Sorry forgot to mention not enabling WSG, The AV and Hips....I don't have those running, only the antispyware....As I said, it's kept me free from problems and I admit to surfing occasionally in some pretty murky places.... Also using a good dose of Common sense helps!!
