****me *** and MGH
I have installed AVG toolkit, anti spyware and anti virus and scanned my whole computer. The programmes are installed and I have short cuts on my desk top. Do you recommend anywhere specific for the programmes to be stored?
Hope this doesn't sound stupid. lol

If you have Virgin(NTL) broadband you can download free antivirus, antispyware etc and it works well. It's called NTL Netguard.

which anti spyware do you use? i have just downloaded spyware doctor, but it says to udgrade!
what i have read is that you have to have the full version to remove anything?
i want a free one, one that is going to protect my pc!

spyware doctor is scanning at the moment and it's taking ages! i used t have ad-aware and spyware blaster, but wanted to try something else.
