Anti Virus/Spyware Software?

[jetpat]

The only "good" free one I used to have was Spybot - Search & Destroy (I liked it 'cuz of Metallica). The one that I found that wasn't so much of a resource hog is PC-cillin by TrendMicro. Real time antivirus/spyware stuff that would block you from even opening a suspected page and tell you why. Plus, it was pretty inexpensive - I paid like $40 and that's good for up to 3 computers.

Now...where's my TrendMicro affiliate code...

I've tried every one of those and none of them did much good. Seems I've tried every one out there! I have no problem buying software just tired of buying crap that doesn't work!

Torn: I haven't heard that one, I will check it out.

Art that seems like the one I remember.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I will check them all out. Any one else have thoughts on the subject, please speak up. Sadly spyware is one of the things that makes me hate the net some days.
