Re: Adware, spyware, and trojans

[Earl Heather <spam () pheather com>]

If your interested in some more info then I recommend that you check 
out the forums at

http://www.wilderssecurity.com/index.php

where you'll find discussions on all these topics and more, including 
comparisons of various tools available

the site continues to attract a growing legion of security developers 
and users who try to help out all who visit

Its companion site 
http://www.wilders.org/
is a good reference site and compliments the forums, including links 
to a lot of current security software

hope this helps
