> Spyware Blaster is also fantastic.. It prevents spyware being loaded when it does try.. I've only been using it since weekend (after spending hours trying to get rid of a trojan!) but seems to be working great so far!!
><<<<<< I think you'll love it Nikki. Once I put it on and kept it updated, I realized that when I would scan with Spybot or Ad-Aware, they would no longer find much of anything. That pattern was so consistent that after awhile I even removed Spybot & Ad-Aware from one of my computers that I needed to save room on. Now I just scan it with the online scanners, and while they don't remove stuff, nothing worth removing is found anyway (and they provide manual instructions for anything that is). Of course, if you don't need to save room there'd be no point in removing the others.
I agree -- it's *FUN* to talk about this stuff (tell that to my friends tho, HA).
But more importantly, Fallsfall, so glad to hear things are looking up! : )
