The only way to get away from spyware and a host of other crap is to switch to MAC. It is the best move you will ever make and save hrs per week in the struggle with Microsoft that you undertake right now.

That's not true. I'm on CERT's mailing list for work, as well as a multistate information security initiative, and I just found 68 bulletins issued by ISAC that affected OSX in 2007 and 2008.
Granted, Mac has a much better track record, but it's not the answer to malicious code writers. OpenBSD is the answer to that, but until Theo DeRadt pulls his head from his butt and mingles with the "mere mortals", nobody's going to use his OS on any great scale.

I might try that if Steve Jobs wasn’t so full of himself.

He wants to get away from the crap and you’re feeding him more.
