That's pretty good although I'd trade ZoneAlarm for Comodo. I might also trade Spyware Blaster for SuperAnti-Spyware.



Avira is the best free anti-virus. I personally use NOD32.

I would keep Zonealarn personality, although it is really just up to taste. I would also only keep two adware/spyware removers. I use Ad-aware and Spybot: Search and Destroy and they work great. If you can afford it use Nod32, as the above poster said (again) :P
I dont see the need for all that antispyware



Get avast antivirus which includes antispyware and antirootkit



get Online armour free firewall or Comodo



Using firefox is good



most the time when you scan for spyware with your antispyware programs, it is mostly tracking cookie so why dont you block cookies in your web browser and take the ones you only need like hotmail and you are fine



Use ccleaner which is good junk cleaner
Looks good, but SpyWareBlaster really does nothing (but block a few tracking cookies) when used with Firefox. SWB can only restrict website actions and block active-X when using Internet Explorer.



Therefore, you might consider replacing SWB with a good HOSTS file block list.



"You can use a custom HOSTS file to block ads, banners, 3rd party Cookies, 3rd party page counters, web bugs, and even most hijackers. This is accomplished by blocking the connection(s) that supplies these little gems."



MVPS has an excellent HOSTS file, free at:

Get rid of all them and download Norton anti-virus, you only need one good system....... too many, and they play against eachother.
