Computer question: what programs do you run resident?
Edited on Sun Sep-18-05 04:19 PM by mvd
By that, I mean always active.

Mine:

KAV Personal Pro 5.0 (AV)
Outpost Pro 2.7 (firewall - I change this one sometimes, but might stay since it's running better than ZAP and the Norton Firewall.)
BOClean (anti-trojan)
ProcessGuard
Microsoft Anti-Spyware Beta
WeatherPulse (spyware and ad-ware free desktop weather.)
Norton GoBack

Looks like that's it except for things like my printer and sound icons.

1. I'd check that Weather pulse for Spyware/Adware though.

2. Everything lists it as clean

Ad-aware, Spybot S&D, Microsoft Anti-Spyware, Kaspersky, BOClean, and people at broadbandreports.com all do.

Even BOClean flagged WeatherBug. That's when I changed.
