Believe it or not Microsoft actually makes a pretty good AntiSpyware program (named just that: Microsoft Anti-Spyware.) I've found that it works just as a well and sometimes better than Ad-Aware SE . . .
For anti-virus the absolute best is NOD32 . . . Kaspersky and AVG come close, but can't quite reach the level of NOD32. Firewalls can help ALOT too. On my system with NOD32 + MS Anti-Spyware + Ad-Aware 1.06 + Zonealarm Pro, absolutely nothing gets in that I don't want . . .
