Great info good Sir knight!

Just this morning I un-installed AdAware and installed SpyBot Search & Destroy based on info from this website:

Stop Using LavaSoft's AdAware!

I must say I am much more impressed with SpyBot Search & Destroy than AdAware. It does so much more, and recovery backups are automatic and give you file level granularity as opposed to AdAware's all in one shot recovery.

Keep up the good work getting the word out.

Well I won't jump the AdAware ship so fast. I think once AdAware 6 comes out, it will catch back up to SpyBot. I'll keep both.

I downloaded the trial version of spyware, and it wouldn't install. Now I can't even find it so I can right-click on it and install it...I'm such an ignoramus, I have no idea where it could be...any suggestions?

I have installed Spy Bot-Search and Destroy as well as
Spy Guard and Spy Blaster. When I first installed these three programs, I had Zone Alarm Pro installed as well. Everything was fine until Spy Bot Search and Destroy told me to uninstall Zone Alarm Pro. I did uninstall Zone Alarm Pro and left the other three programs running.</P>Niw I am getting a lot of pop-up ads. Are these three programs running correctly? If not, is there a way for these three programs to stop pop-up ads?
