Adware and Spyware

[Chameleon]

What does everyone use for this? I was thinking about Spybot, but am unsure..

[Heretic121]

I've used Spybot before and thought it was quite good. I'd say go for it

[Glyphz]

Avast

Ad-Aware Antivirus

 

NOD32 use to be pretty good

[UAdave]

MS Security essentials for antivirus. Malwarebytes if I need to do any cleanup.

I use Bitdefender. The cool thing about this product is at the end of the year Walmart has a special version that you get from their online source.

It has 3 users, lasts 3 years, and usually sells for $39.99.

 

It has always been the most top rated for AV, Spy, and malware. Plus it has a built in online-game allowance that allows for faster gaming, but still keeps you protected.

I use Avast+Kaspersky with SUPER AntiSpyware, very good combination of truth has little fooling about adjusting for various different authorization for a Master

Only cool people use the combination of Avast and Malwarebytes.

 

I also use the combination of Avast and Malwarebytes.

I use ESET smart security (or avast), Malwarebytes, and Spybot Search&Destroy

[McFiro]

I use ESET smart security

 

Just like in my case.

Bitdefender Total Security(firewall disabled)+firewall Comodo+Malwarebytes and some others (for a check with a different tool)

 

Spybot (same for AD-Aware) is getting old/inefficient and useless because every good Antivirus include now their own antispyware/antirootkit/anti.. If you're really looking to get one, try "Superantispyware"..
