spy sweeper! It is not expensive! We are an isp and use and recommend this!
I have Trend Micro just renewed it for 2 years and it is all by itself. I also use AVG free Virus. As well as Registery Smart which I did have to pay for
A computer can only have 1 anti-virus at a time. We get ours for free from our internet provider (SBC Global.net). Although they have a free anti-spyware, I am thoroughly unimpressed with it.
If you haven't already checked out Kaspersky Anti-Virus, do so. After reading excellent reviews from experts and users, I bought it last year for three computers--in different homes. Each user has reported 100% satisfaction.
It's offered as a stand-alone or with complete internet security pack.
My college age son had to have his computer repaired last summer. The repair people suggested having both SpyBot and AVG free version. They said that is all you really need. I had Norton and got rid of it. I had nothing but problems galore with my computer with the Norton installed. Computer repair person said that Norton is known for problems. I have since gotten rid of Norton. I have AVG free version and StopZilla. My computer runs like a dream.
Adding my two-cents worth, AVG anti-virus and anti-spyware and Spybot are the best. Have used them for years and get good results - and they're free!
AVG is great for antivirus, but I'm not sure about it for spyware protection. I've never relied on it for that. I use both Spybot and Ad-Aware (free version) (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad_aware_free.php). You really need two products for spyware protection, because spyware proliferates so fast that no one application will find it all. You have to be careful, too, because a lot of the products that claim to remove spyware are themselves spyware. There are a ton of Ad-Aware imitators.
