It is the best free anti-spyware application currently. When one uses
safe surfing habits, a good firewall, anti-virus and Spyware Terminator is
good enough for most. If you surf a bit on the wild side, I would add
more armor...I list the best choices on my website.

Does it have the context menu entry where you can right click on a file
and scan for spyware like Ewido?
Paul
Yes it does.

Since none of the main AV products tested recently have the ability to
clear more than fifty percent of existing spyware, I always advise my
clients to have at least FOUR anti-spyware programs on their systems:
usually Ad-Aware, Spybot Search and Destroy, SpywareBlaster (recommended
by Spybot right in the program), and Windows Defender. I'd also add two
on-demand anti-trojan products, A-Squared Free and AVG Anti-Spyware.
I've recently added SpywareGuard from Javacoolsoftware (the makers of
SpywareBlaster) that adds a real-time scanning component, live updates,
and IE download protection and browser hijack protection.
It's available here: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html

It really depends a lot on your surfing habits. Many folks get along fine
with just a router with firewall capability. I'm doing fine with AOL AVS,
Comodo PFW, and Spyware Terminator and I surf a bit wildly. I do use
Sandboxie for some events. Those that surf a bit more wildly, I recommend
adding more armor from the list of "picks" on my website.
