Uh huh

Most of you know me as the guy with MANY security apps(AS/AT/AV/A?), I usually have a clean system(really?)... last night I decided to get SpySweeper again, updated it and guess what. It found a couple traces of NavExcel. This *AFTER* running Ad-Aware, SpyBot S&D, MS AS, and SpySubtract.
Overkill? I don't think so. IE? Nope(usually Opera).
I suspect these traces are from some questionable software downloads(browser is irrelavent). I imagine some of you 1 or 2 app people might have a few things you do not know about.

Will I continue to do weekly scans for crap? You betcha!
When I do these weekly scans, do always find s***? Nope, just sometimes.
Will I continue to download all kinds of s***? Yep!
Will I surf where most of you fear? You know it!
Have I reinstalled my OS? Nope! (see next line)
I also have/use Acronis TI... is that overkill? Hell no!

Living in fear and locking your computer down so far the internet is boring is NOT for me.
I can click any link, no worries!
