| I almost forgot about Spysweeper. Until the beginning of this year it was very good. I think it's still OK but not for spyware fighters to use...

Spysweeper was on tail end of my start of 04, Yes I agree to what your saying.

An interesting discussion and im sure there will be new Malware programs in the future
Its all down to personal choice what programs you use.
My thanks to the developers of tools that assist Malware fighters in their never ending battle

Adaware and Spybot are a waste these days.

Each unto his own - you all know my opinion on the products so I won't tell you all again about that, but I am of the firm opinion that a single 'Internet Security' product is probably better in the long run than several individual anti-spam/virus/malware whatever products.

Really I don't know it Albert. You know I don't know of a single suite that is equally good at all aspects so I much prefer the best of each individual product type.

As I say - each unto his own!
I have a theory that Microsoft made the desktop so easy to customise because it took people's minds off how awful the product was!
