Ignore the rest and uninstall them. Savannah2 03-02-2008, 16:11 Well i have 2GB :hihi: Im just wondering do i need all the programs? bearing in mind some pick up what others dont I personally think is overkill. The only one I use is Spyware Blaster and I find that sufficient for my needs. So, I would keep Spyware Blaster and Spyware Terminator from your list. They are the best two and if you want a third I would say AVG Anti Spyware. :) Savannah2 03-02-2008, 16:13 Spybot Search and Destroy is the best out of the listed programs in my opinion. Ignore the rest and uninstall them. It use to be good: well until it destroyed my OS. lol :) Ghozer 03-02-2008, 16:17 I use Adaware SE, and an online scan, every 2 weeks, and thats usually enough.. mk72 04-02-2008, 05:23 I have the following installed on Vista. Webroot Spy Sweeper Spyware Doctor Counterspy Spybot Search & Destroy Spywareblaster Ad-Aware 2007 Spyware Terminator Maybe overkill?
