1. Most of the techies I know use third-party tools like AdSubtract Pro and AdAware as well as Norton Anti-Virus (latest versions stop trojans as well as viruses) to eliminate spyware. I haven’t tried Microsoft’s program yet and probably won’t. I have all kinds of defenses already in place.

4. If one is paranoid about trojans (yup, that’s me) why not try a classy good ‘ol Aussie product.
   TDS-3 at diamondcs.com.au.
   No. It aint free. But it has saved my business computers when the big name programs have failed.
   I use a layered approach with freebie and purchased programs for viruses, worms, trojans, adware, spyware, highjackers, etc.

   PS. I may be paranoid, but I have not had to re-format because of slimeware infestation.

5. I appear to be in danger from BMEWS.

   Whenever I visit the BMEWS site, my address bar buttons keep telling me…

   ‘Who’s In The White House?
   Bush! Bush! Bush!’

   Considering that I voted Bush as the lesser of two evils, I already know who’s in the White House. ‘Tis very annoying.

   Only happens when I’m visiting BMEWS.
