Replies anonomouse Posted at 8:25 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Almost anything with the word "Super" in the name scares me. It makes me think that they only try to impress you, while the product doesn't actually fulfill its job. Here's what I recommend: (By the way, on my own computer, I only use anti-virus; I'm good at avoiding viruses, don't use IE, and have never had any problems) Anti-Virus: Avast! is a great, fast, free anti-virus. Anti-Spyware: Spybot Search/Destroy has a funny name, but is a great product. You wouldn't necessarily need it, but it is a good tool to have on hand. Crap Cleaner: CCleaner will clean your computer up and fix any problems with your registry. I highly recommend this.

Spybot search and destroy the tea timer can clash with some anti viruses, i think it could clash with Avast so make sure you make the tea timer not active. Daveh Posted at 3:12 am on Dec. 17, 2008 I got AVG. then got a virus. AVG remained silent. it didn't do a thing. I had to uninstall it and then installed kaspersky. It's free for only 30 days though. A lot better than AVG though Ancient Rights Posted at 7:43 pm on Dec. 16, 2008 AVG and Spybot Search and Destroy are popular ones. There are also other programs that let you have free trials that you can just install over and over, like Windows Live OneCare. ayobb Posted at 7:43 pm on Dec. 16, 2008 Are most of these spyware programs, for adware aswell?
