umm...is that a general question about the MS Corporation? :P

or, if you're referring specifically to MS Anti-Spyware...
Yes, this particular anti-spyware software does a good job as long as you
(as is the case with any spyware/av program), be sure you have the latest updates installed.
Plus, with it's Real-Time Protection, it will catch spyware before they can run.

:)

where are you getting this adware in the first place? The scans I do only bring up cookies.
:unsure: Some of your guys seem so paranoid.

Well no some " good " anti spyware programs will stop some trojans from being installed to the start menu and will give you a fighting chance . Be it from e-mail or D/L programs . :)


I can't honestly say what the best one is but Giant antispyware and Symantic Corp. with Tamper protection has saved my butt a few times. ;)





If I could clarified something, as had been said many times on this board
.


Giant ,Counterspy , Microsoft = Same thing or same engine and updates .

I use Counterspy because Microsoft-(bill gate's nickname for his penis)-'s version kept getting all kinds of problems.

Ad-adware + Ad-watch + Symantec Antivirus

Just updated mine, now all I use is AOL's Safety & Security Center (has spyware, firewall, virus scan, phishing & spam)

No, I bring my own service. My family likes AOL, they use the software & everything, I just use the antivirus. I like their antivirus/firewall, works for me. ;)

O gosh, did i just hear an AOL USER?

:sick: I think i'm going to throw up:sick:
