All of those except the Yahoo! Toolbar. Do you recommend it?

See the poll asked what I used, not what I thought was best. I use Earthlink's blocker, my uncle uses it as well as Ad Aware and Norton's.

NOD32 is the best virus scanner - Ad-Aware is good as well but you need to configure it in order to make it useful

Ad-Aware has always worked for me when I got rid of my virus last year.

I generally don't get spyware because I use Firefox and I have a bit of sense when using the internet.
I generally tell people to use Spybot S&D or Adaware to get rid of spyware. |
