I found the A2 Square antivirus to be very slow when trying to run the virus scan part of the program. It may have been a memory corruption problem that caused my computer to crash.

I have 512 megs of ram so I guess that compensates a bit?

But it found 2 trojans nortons missed.

For that I'm grateful]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,11005499 Mon, 09 Aug 2004 17:40:58 EDT Re: Its the People too, but I hate the scams for t http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,11004960 antiphishing : _____________________________________________________________

Spybot's done the job for me all by itself. This past weekend I worked on a machine with a dozen distinct pieces of spyware (300 traces in all, AFTER I cleaned up the obvious stuff manually) and Spybot cleaned it right out after 2 or 3 passes. Even a (thank goodness) low-order CWS infection.

Ad-Aware's not necessary, although it doesn't hurt as a secondary check.

That's the (2) I use and recommend every day. Then you have to explain that someone also needs a popup-blocker (I point 'em to Google), trojan finder/cleaner software, anti-virus, kept up-to-date, which NEVER are, and the list goes on. :(

I hate needing two programs, Adaware and Spybot, to do the same job though... :( ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,11003257 Mon, 09 Aug 2004 13:08:48 EDT Re: Its the People too, but I hate the scams for t http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,11003217 dks7 : I myself found I was running 1 of the programs on the list.

I work at tech support and people get these rediculous programs "SpySpotter, SpyZapper", etc. It's all crap. There are three good spyware protection apps:

SpyBot Search & Destroy
AdAware
AOL Spyware Protection (Not the best, but better than nothing!)
