    Commercial Antispyware or Malware

    I have been using the free versions of Ad-aware and Spybot. Should I
    adopt the "paid" version of their products, or PC Tools, etc.

    Any suggestions / comments will be thankful.

    Thanks,

    A Monk

    Rather than invest in paid versions I would add SuperAntiSpyeare, AVG
    Anti-Spyware and A2 AntiSpyware. There appears to be no single program that
    can catch everything, and I have typically seen where one application found
    malware that all the others missed.

    You have the right idea in so far as continuing to remain with free
    software. If you do enjoy the authors work and they have paid versions,
    it's upto you...

    Sadly, Your right in the sense that one app will find something 3 or 4
    others didn't notice...
