I'm using Pest Patrol which I like alot. DO NOT USE SPYWARE NUKER. Pest Patrol identifies it as being spyware itself!

Alexa is actually put in by Microsoft. Alexa is the company that reates all web sites by keeping track of how many visitors. It does NOT track who.
Alexa can be deleted with no effect on Interent Explorer, but microsoft will reinstall it on the next update you download.
That's ALL??? Wow! Either you do not use Internet Explorer, or you haven't visited any of the sites I've visited... I will not elaborate on that! hehehe
You have very safe browsing habits.

You have very safe browsing habits.I've been a major fraidy cat since I have no firewall, no virus protection, and usually don't have a clue what I'm doing.
I only downloaded IE earlier this week -- I really tip-toe through all this cyber stuff. Plus, my address book is very small and I never open unsolicited e-mails.
Ah, but maybe now I can be a little bolder...(lol).

I forgot to mention that I haven't had a single pop-up since I downloaded AdAware and disabled that instant message thingy.
Last year I discovered that Drudgereports.com is a porn site. And a mispelling of Kazaa put me into some Oriental porn site that I had to shut down my computer to get out of.
Bet your adventures are far more interesting - lol.
