I've tried to install Spybot and AdAware, and all I get is an error message saying that a WS2_32.DLL file cannot be found. Anyone know a way around this?

Yes, create a bogus file with that name in your System32 directory... the program is going to overwrite it anyways.

BTW, I reset Mozilla to warn me about privacy settings on web pages, and the only thing that popped up on Drudge Report was a session cookie.
