    SuperAntiSpyware

    Is indefinetly the best tool out there for getting rid of viruses...

    Man I paid 99 bucks for trend micro cillin and it missed a heck of a lot of stuff SuperAntiSpyware did not...

    Seriously I am making a huge reccomendation here...

    And it's free!

    Josiah

    P.S. What has worked the best for you guys

    P.P.S. Trend Micro SUCKS!

    I love ZoneAlarm Security Suite. And Spybot S&D's tea-time protection rocks. I hate NIS because it's a system hogger. Never used PC-cillin or Mcafee

    for viruses norton and panda antivirus is suggested!
    for adwares, use adaware se personal, and for spywares use spybot!
    this will help you fight viruses and spywares:)

    I only use Kaspersky, with all updates it's imposibile to get a virus.

    I use superantispyware too and I agree it's awesome. It helped me get rig of some very crappy spyware that kept making a pop-up appear on the bottom-right side of the screen. As an antivirus I use NOD32. I used to have zone alarm too but I can't remember why I stopped using it :/

    might have to rethink that one!

    Nop you are not alone. I am also using Mcafee for a long time and it's the best for me, though I'm thinking to get kasperky suit

    I guess it does. But when I had installed Kaspersky antivirus, I didn't like it for some reason, and uninstalled it (or at least tried to). I followed all uninstallation steps correctly, but a part of it remained! I couldn't install any other antivirus on the system! I had to reinstall XP :(

    That's strange. Maybe some sort of uninstallation problem . Never happened to me as I've used Kaspersky suit for almost 6 months (pirated copy though) and finally they blacklisted that key and I stopped using it and now thinking to get a licensed copy. Kaspersky is the best AV for me and I would love to use it again.

    You don't have an anti-virus installed or you've got their spysweeper + antivirus edition?

    I love this software though but I have the spyware edition only :( and I'm not wililng to spend another $10 to upgrade to AV edition:)
