I like spybots add-on that keeps an eye of registry and ad-awares plugins.
I just don't trust Microsofts anti-anything. Just think about all the bugs in their OS and other software, just installed my win again and i had to download a huge amount of updates (atleast 27)... Have to check out that counterspy. Where did you read the review? |

Hehe, many ppl have that opinion , but most of them don't know that microsoft havn't made their antispyware alle by their own. They just bought one of the best antispyware programs (Giant) and called it Microsoft AntiSpyware, and made it free!!. MAS is one of the best antispyware program you can get today.
