    Spybot, Adaware, AVG antivirus is capable of catching a few as well. Try SpywereBlaster to secure the web browser against future attacks. Roswell:)

          Prevx[^] was recommended to me by a friend. Haven't had the time to try it out tho.

            I think 1.4 should be sufficient. The product was originally developed by Web Root[^] which sell more powerful versions.

                      I really like the Windows Defender in Vista. Don't care much of it's anti-spyware functionality (I protect myself enough as it is). I do however like the way you can sort processes, network connections, etc.

                          Grisoft AVG, a dedicated FreeBSD-server with firewall, and common sense are my items of protection. Actually, I think I would manage well with only the FreeBSD-server and common sense. I've had two viruses in 12 years or something like that. None of the instances did me much harm as the viruses were quite benign.
