I hear Kazaa has some good spyware.

[digitalv]

lol. Do you mean something to REMOVE Spyware? Try Spybot.

> huh?

Ditto. ;)

> Spybot

Dunno, really. Seems to me that Spybot S&D never finds anything on my pc anymore. I tend to prefer Ad-aware.

I just updated both my Ad-Ware and Spybot then ran them both. Ad-ware first, it found about 50 cookies, then Spybot found another 505.

Kazza is spyware ...

And a magnet for more worms and trojans and general hacker crap than you could shake a stick at ......

Installing it is a lot like getting a cardboard Harley so you can hang out and feel at home at the local Hells Angels chapter house......

Sooner or later its gonna draw attention to you and some hacker is gonna make you his "girlfriend "...

And take your machine away from you ....

I've been using "SpywareBlaster" and Adaware. They seem to do the job.

Jim, I took inspiration from your comments and uninstalled and reinstalled Spybot. Whatever the problem may have been it works now and caught 47 files in first attempt. Just after that Ad-aware found 2. There still seems to be sense in using two different programs.

I've run Ad-aware and Spybot S&D, having updated them before running them, and besides a few cookies, haven't ever found any "spyware." I'm careful about the sites I visit and the files I download, but shuld I be concerned about this lack of garbage on my computer? It seems that spyware is virtually ubiquitous, and maybe I have some that those programs didn't find?
