Spyware Doctor On Guard?

[louise]

I have Spyware Doctor but until now, I've been using it
without the "on guard" feature which allows it to monitor
all the time.

I run NOD32 and Sygate along with a Linksys wired router.
But I do not keep any spyware program running, although I
use them on demand, every few days (Adaware, Spyware Doctor,
Spybot).

Is it worth the resource overhead to keep Spyware Doctor On
Guard running all the time?

TIA

Louise

You seem a bit paranoid here and running a lot of snake-oil. Malware can
circumvent every last bit of it once it hits the machine and can excute.

Use the proper tools and look for yourself from time to time and not
depend upon the snake-oil to tell you what is happening.
