Well, I have everything you have (exchanging Internet Sweeper for your
Window Washer).

In addition Norton Firewall, a router, Xp (bit more secure than W98). Also
run HijackThis, SpywareBlaster and Spybot.

Do I need any of it? Well, Psych-101 said I need air, food & shelter. Most
everything else is optional :-)

Like Kyle said, why not run Spybot?
