So now I use ZoneAlarm and Ad-Aware (which is a WAY cool piece of
software, and shows some ugly things going on).  I looked at SpyCop, and
I'm not exactly sure what it does other than file scans, and even that
I'm sure exactly what it's scanning for.  Ad-Aware is far more specific
about what it does, and it does it superbly.  It ripped a TON of stuff
out of my daughter's PC (and few things out of mine!).
