spyware software

Would like to know what is the best spyware software out
there. Free is not always the best. I have ad-ware 6.0 on
my computer now would like another one that is easy to
use and a good interface.

If you had to pick from the firewall with SP2 or Zone
alarm pro 5 which is the best. I was told you can not
have two running at the same time one must be shutdown I
am right? I have a internet connection all the time have
high speed cable internet.

Note: OS is XP Pro with service pack 2 installed on
computer.

Thanks for the help.

Hi

Please try the following programs:

Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder -http://forum.aumha.org/downloads/cwshredder.zip

Try SpyWareBlaster to stop intrusions:

The XP Firewall doesn't monitor outgoing access to the Internet. Therefore
a '2-way' Firewall is preferable, such as ZoneAlarm, as you have already
mentioned. If ZA is installed, then the XP Firewall can be disabled.

Just scan the posts in this newsgroup. Both these issues are discussed
at length and in many posts.
