Personally I use Spybot and AdAware with my clients, then load a
firewall to watch which programs still try and access the internet..and
rip them out by the roots.

hi SOS

yes, basically, its just a standard disclaimer.

and I also use both products and a firewall.

On another topic im not happy with the appearance of your site SOS,
the content is great, but the design has always gone from poor to worse,
you just need to look at the top freeware and shareware sites and look
at how their designed for choosing software...here is a front page
design that would suit your site perfectly,
http://www.freewarefiles.com/
this design is close to perfection.. you must look closely
at the features its all there. make something similar to this,
but dont despair SOS because the pricelesswarehome site is a
complete joke its 10x worse than yours and I am an expert in this subject.
if only susan (bug-her) would understand how pathetic her site is,
instead of sabotaging any attempt to improve her site.

and SOS (I cant enter your site, my security settings) and most others
that have high security wont either...important get rid of the javascript,
you dont need it.

I wont charge you for this advice,
just dont be cruel to animals.

regards
stan the logical one

Right.... including the multi "subject" advert banner, located slightly above
the screen's midland.
If that's perfection, what's it say about the site's author?

I'm not affiliated with that site it was just a good design example
I chose for SOS, but the author deserves a web design Award!

and SOS naturally would remove the adspace because he dont need it.
