| reply to blackdragon1 I use on various machines Ad-Aware SE, hosts file, Spybot S & D, SpywareGuard and Spyware Blaster. On my Vista computer I have only used Windows Defender, but I plan to at least run Spybot and Ad-Aware on it just to see how Defender is doing. -- Team Discovery "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends."

Spywareblaster is a must for anyone I help with there computer, because it works without any help from the user, but updates and makes my work a lot less...  |

I was glad to see someone mention Firefox with "NoScript". I think it's great protection, especially against some of the 'Zero-Day' exploits that pop up.
As far as the other things I use, it's Spybot S&D (with Tea Timer running), and Spyware Blaster running resident, AdAware SE once every month (or so..), and HijackThis regularly, especially after new installations.
Great poll! Sorry I haven't been around to participate lately. I'll try to focus more of my attention back here. This web site is such a great resource. |

| reply to blackdragon1 Thanks for the poll blackdragon1 .
I voted for Spybot S&D and AdAwareSE but only use them about once a month for on-demand scanning. I also use WinPatrol Plus real-time which is more than just antispyware. |

| reply to blackdragon1 Great poll blackdragon1 !
Lets see....I use SuperAntispyware and, um....gee, I guess that's about it. 
I've used many others in the past, but don't bother any more. (Never found anything back then, and still don't). Rarely bother to run a scan even with SuperAntispyware these days.  -- I had a life once.....now I have a Computer and a Modem. |

2 edits | reply to blackdragon1 I used to use Ad-Aware,Spybot Search & Destroy and Spyware Blaster. But since moving to Wndows Vista I only use Windows Defender and Avast and have not gotten any spyware or viruses on my PC yet. I also use Vista built in Firewall and hardware firewall. It really was over kill before. |

| reply to blackdragon1 Terrific poll blackdragon1, Thanks! 
Gotta start with 2 old favorites; SpywareBlaster and SpywareGuard. They're the dress on my computer. SuperAntiSpyware. Good program. I've run it in realtime and also on demand depending on what I maybe trying at the time. And right now I've trying out ThreatFire Free. Been working very well I can't forget WinPatrol Plus.

| reply to blackdragon1 I've been using Regprot since Win98 along with the others I voted for in the poll. I'm also currently running/testing Mcafee security package. I'm not sure what it's actually called so I posted an attachment. When I'm being bad, I run Sandboxie. -- Prevent Malware |
