The free versions of AVG and Avast only provide anti-virus protection; you
still need at least one anti-spyware program on your system for complete
protection. Malware Bites and Super Anti Spyware are good free JAWS
friendly alternatives to AdAware. Both are ready to go right out of the box
and require no scripts.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] ad-aware
Hi list. I have been using ad-aware SE for some time and found it very
jaws friendly with the jaws scripts. I note, however, that as of April 1,
on the lavasoft website, that the definitions updates are no longer
supported, only the AE(paid) edition is. I have a couple of specific
questions and a general one. 1
are the scripts useable with the AE?
2. would the ad-aware AE add much more protection to the Avast antiviral
program that I am running now, or is there another free program that works
well with Jaws that does the same job?
This brings up the general question that I have not quite gotten a grip
on... is it necessary in addition to a general antiviral program such as
Avast, or AVG,etc, to run programs,such as Spybot, Ad-aware etc., for
spyware, trojans etc?If so, is there a resource or website that lists
which programs are best suted for which threats? I very much appreciate
the points I have learned from the very helpful listers, and thanks in
advance for your suggestions.
