Yes great point big chris. The range of options spybot puts out is wonderful and its worth the small bugs to still use it.

Also igalan I think opera is a wonderful browser and would use it over firefox any day. Buh that is me. Again I still use it because spybot still does protect opera from downloading plugins that can become a big issue for your system. Then again its all users pick. I use ie but I honestly had ms defender.. It was the worse thing I ever used...

As for ie related stuff between spybot and auto protect etc and Super ad blocker (And might i note that this is the best popup blocker I have EVER seen. ) I have no issues also I have been making a few changes to my host file to not only block spyware but ads as well so Im happy with the turn out.

I found a system that works for me and I dare not change it.
Im going to go ahead and add my host file in case someone wants to give it a run. Be sure to backup yours though.

Just to give anyone that wants to try it a basic idea of what I have added etc.
The host file blocks all big ad sites that I have found along with spyware/virus sites. Try if you like or not. Its free couldnt ask for more

I just like the fact that I can open up hotmail and the ads though the box is still around the ads them self dont load. YES THE ANNOYING FLASH ADS ARE GONE!
