Hi everyone,
I’m just wondering what anti-virus (Avast! offcoarse); anti-spyware, firewall you guys use? Just curious ;D ;D
I’m currently using:
Anti-Virus: Avast! 4.6 Professional
Firewall: Zonealarm Professional 6.1
Anti-Spyware:
Ad-aware personal edition
SpywareBlaster
Spybot S&D
Microsoft Anti-Spyware Beta 1
Antivirus: NOD32 :-[ (got 14 months license for free)
Firewall: Windows XP SP2 Firewall
Anti-spyware: None
I was also using like 5 different types of anti-spyware but some day i simply removed them all since all they ever detected were some stupid tracking cookies.
So no need for them. Firefox or Opera somehow remove any need for anti-spyware tools if you also at least check the source of software you just downloaded…
Avast
ZA Pro
Spywareblaster
MS Antispy
That is all you need in order of priority and I only run antispy monthly
Antivirus: Avast Home
Firewall: keep changing that all the time but i am currently on Comodo + i am behind a hardware firewall(router)
Antispyware(anti malware is the better word here): Ad-Aware , Spybot S&D , Ewido , a2 , HijackThis(these are for scanning) for resident protection i use System Safety Monitor(HIPS) and SpywareBlaster(avast is resident too of course)…
The cost of all these programs?? all FREE hehe ;D
avast! Pro is resident
Bitdefender Free for second opinions
Ewido
Spybot S&D with TeaTimer enabled
AdAware
Spyware Blaster
WinPatrol
Zone Alarm Free
all behind a firewall router
I also have A-Squared, MS Antispyware, and Clamwin AV installed. I keep them updated but rarely use them anymore.
Check my signature … plus ewido added recently.
Simple plain hammer… when I see something is trying to enter my computer I like to smash it with my hammer. That way I don’t have to worry about recovery of all those damaged files and folders. ;D
Lol nice 
My signature says everything ;D
Very Nice Sig as well ;D
How did you make it can I ask? And what is a good program to make awesome sigs?
Sorry for asking this :
But everyone continue telling me what softwares you use ;D Just curious that’s all :-[
I’m so bloody paranoid I use every possible program I can afford + All the free programs I can get my hands on. I keep nothing important on my computer it’s all in a box under my bed

Avast Pro resident
ClamWin
Spybot
Spywareblaster
Microsoft Beta
Sunbelt Firewall
PS: I have been trying out Netscape 8.1, Which has a spyscanner built into the browser.
I don’t know how good it is.
I have used it twice each time it has said I have spyware on the computer.
All the rest comes up clear.
most of mine is in signature as well but i also have bit defender 8 as a spare scanner.
Yes… and you my friend, forgot to mention what you told me few months ago… you also hired 4 body guards to guard your PC while you are away. So if something even try to enter your computer they will give it a good punching and kicking.
Also, those piles of potatoes as a barrier, true natural, 100% bio firewall… although it’s not freeware one, but it’s effective… even if something passes through that barrier, you can always pick up some of those potatoes and start throwing them at those pests… ;D
No my friend I sacked the guards, thrown the potatoes away and hire the Nortons guy in Croatia. He seems to know what he is doing

Hahahahaha… for all those who still don’t get it… here is the link:
What software do I use, hm, just refer to my signature below.
Zagor,
With all that scanning going on, does a website ever open on your computer ??? ;D ;D ;D
Just yesterday it looked like I was gona catch a flue and my friend suggested (him knowing my scanning habbits) that I incorporate the real-life instead of real-time scanning engine
And so, I’m considering it… ;D ;D ;D
LOL … thanks for the laughs N. Tesla, Zagor, & Bob … I really needed them! ;D
