Spybot Search and Destroy is great, but it doesn't get it all, and alot of the stuff it does get, just keeps coming back. One good thing to do with windows xp, is use a limited account and only use the administrator account for installing software. Limited accounts makes it harder for spyware to be installed in the first place.

Well, the only real contest is between Norton and McAfee. Norton is better by a margin for one simple reason: They are faster at releasing new "virus definitions" (read: most up-to-date protections). Both programs are very good and stable, but antivirus software is only as effective as it is up-to-date.

I've never used Norton so I have no idea whats its interface and features are like, but McAfee works well. As for the release of the Virus Definition Files...I get an update almost every other day...which is kind of creepy...I had no idea new viruses came out that fast... :)

I have used panda Antivirus before and it was realy mesing up. That was the reason why i had to change it with AVG. For now, AVG is still working fine and i aint having any problems with viruses. Either AVG removes the virus automatically or it detects it and i remove it manually.
