and
I have both and are finding them both useful, and have not had any problems.
But as with any software, read about it ( see above links), then download and run it at your own risk.

I think I erased my tracks to where I found that.
What a circus this spyware crap is turning into!!!
Anyone have problems with spybot not updating ? Never sems to be an update for that search and destroy thang.........???
Stay safe !
Thank you. The two programs you cited above have protected my PC and have executed the resident Spy/Adware pests.
Not a single pop-up since I installed it, and its running faster than ever!
Thank you again.

I ran the Spybot S&D today for the first time... took a restart to eliminate everything - and I also learned that some things that won't delete at all under my name, have to be deleted from my husband's "account"... (XP).
I'm still having a problem deleting one single zero byte folder. Downloaded MoveOnBoot - that didn't do it either. I think it was related to some "BTIEIN" problem that SpyBot corrected today finally but to be honest I can't remember anymore because I renamed the problem folder "delete" after AdAware labeled it spyware a couple months back. I was able to rename the main folder and I can move it between my desktop and my docs but I can't open it or delete it. "Access denied."
I've googled it to death and am thinking I'm stuck with the stupid thing.
