It  seems that it's dependent on something about the computer being used
as to whether it reads the list of found problems or not.

On my work machine, a dell it reads them on my home machines it doesn't.
all have the same version of jaws, ada-ware and the scripts for it.

I don't find this a problem though as what I do is to tab into where the
list of found items is and then use the context menu or applications key
to select all and just remove the lot. I haven't come to any harm yet!

With Ad aware, last I tried to use it, it found stuff, but it wouldn't
tell ya what it found.  All you could do is mark everything for
deletion.  Has this changed?

Hi Marilyn,

I, personally, don't think you can have too many spyware detectors on
your computer.

What I think others were saying, was that it wasn't a good idea to have
two anti-virus programs running at the same time on your computer.

In other words, don't have Norton's auto-protect and AVG auto-protect on
at the same time, and don't run a virus scan on your computer at the
same time you're running one with Norton or the other one.

I have three different spyware detection programs on my computer.

I have Ad-Aware, Spybot and No Ad-Aware.  Oops, make that four detection
programs, I forgot X-soft Spy.

I have to say, since you're asking, tat I have found that No Ad-Aware is
the best at detecting threats on your computer.

I have run it several times, and even picked up things that were left
behind by the other three programs.  The scan takes a while, so it's
best to leave it running while you're having dinner, but once it's run,
it will pick up everything on your computer that it thinks is spyware.

It will even pick up Kazaa or any other programs that use cookies on
your computer, but the program gives you the option of adding these
items to the exceptions list, and it ignores it in the future.

All around, a very good program, and it's completely accessible, or at
least, 95 percent accessible, and you don't need any scripts to go with
it.

That's the even better part, and if the bloody scan didn't take forever,
than I'd run it more often then just once every couple of weeks, but I
guess that's the price we pay for vigilance.
