ZoneAlarm makes spyware protection too? I'm using Ad-aware which appears to work very well, and is free also.

He used to anyway. I run adware now also, no problems. I think Steve Gibson runs the outfit, called his version OptOut. It pulled about 80 spyfiles out of mine first time and never stopped a program from working. He writes small quality stuff.

Just bought Pest Patrol to add to my protection suite. I have a Netgear firewall router and Norton Internet Security already. Awesome product. Finds all kinds of Trojans and Ad/Spyware. Check it out.

Been using ZoneAlarm firewall for almost two years, no problems, works great. And it's free.

I'm using Ad-aware which appears to work very well, and is free also.

Bingo for me, too, on both. I'm also behind a router/NAT appliance (Linksys) on my DSL. I feel reasonably secure.
