Hi Judy, Sorry my version of Ad-Aware is the licenced (paid) version. But I would not put my faith in one anti-spyware product alone. Out of Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D and Microsoft Anti-Spyware - none of them alone will remove all spyware everytime by themselves. If using Microsoft Anti-Spyware, I would still strongly recommend that at least one other program be used. With Zone Alarm Pro, which now has it's own anti-spyware, I now use 3 different ones. But then I am paranoid and have also turned off UPNP and messenger service. Paul |

I agree with what you're saying about multiple protection, Paul....I use several myself, both paid versions and a few free ones! Judy :) |

Val, yes OK to uninstall other programs.....I do like, though, the added (but manual) free version of AD-AWARE, along with the Microsoft - as mentioned by Paul, not all programs pick up all spyware - but Ad-Aware and Microsoft together work quite well. Judy |
