if you add on too many programs your reaction time will slow down.

get spywareblaster for your browser

SpyBot is not as effective as Norton's. Also, last time I checked, SpyBot will not continually monitor your system like Norton's. SpyBot is designed primarily for tracking cookies and Norton's for malicious viri.

norton sucks, av! it let all kinds of shit into my 'puter that avg and spybot found.

norton also slowed down response time.

i have avg set to run when i am asleep; i manually run spybot every couple of days.

Spybot does have a feature to watch you browser... Does not protect your entire system like Norton. I have had nothing but issues with Norton since 2004 so I don't use it. This has never failed me, and uses less sys memory. http://www.kaspersky.com/

Also run anti-spyware/anti-virus in safe mode for extra precaution against active network bugs which may interfere with normal scanning.

Safemode- start>run...>msconfig>boot.ini>(check)safeboot>ok.
