Hi there! Just like Bellzemos case..
I have recently upgraded my Ad-Aware 2008 to their new application Ad-Aware Anniversary Edition but aside from that I also have Avast! Free Home Edition 4.8.1296 as my Anti-Virus, is that ok? I mean one application is an anti-spyware and the other one's actually an anti-virus so it should not have any conflict right?
Im currently using the following programs as my line of defense:
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 32-Bit
Anti-Virus: Avast! Free Home Edition 4.8.1296 with updated virus database
Anti-Spyware Porgram: Ad-Aware Anniversary Edition (with the Real Live Protection??), MalwareBytes
AntiMalware (MBAM), Windows Defender, SpywareBlaster (does this contradict with
Ad-Aware or not?), Trend Micro HiJackThis, CWShredder
**SpywareBlaster doesn't scan for and clean spyware--it prevents it from being installed in the first place. SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, dialers, browser hijackers, and other potentially unwanted programs. It can also block spyware/tracking cookies in IE, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape, and many other browsers, and restrict the actions of spyware/ad/tracking sites. ---> Is this considered as real-time protection as well? Should I then just shift to SuperAntiSpyware? I mean should I be uninstalling any of my current anti-spyware as mentioned above?
