Thanks for the great Poll Phoenix2088!

I voted SUPERAntiSpyware. I once used several different apps, but just don't see the need anymore...(at least, not for me personally).

I rarely even run a scan with SUPERAntiSpyware these days, and only use it on demand.

Like others, have also reduced the the number security apps used.

Current spyware/malware protection:

SUPERAntiSpyware Pro
avast! Pro 4.8
Online Armor (Paid version -- use the Run Safer option for apps)
SpywareBlaster
Use Fx with NoScript, and Opera for browsers

Thanks for the great poll.

I voted SuperAntiSpyware (free version as stand-alone). Also voted for SpywareBlaster and Windows Defender which I use on other machines in my network.

I also use Avira Antivir which detects some spyware, but didn't vote for "other" because it's primarily an AV program.
