    Broadband advice please?
    « on: November 30, 2006, 07:19:03 AM »
    I am switching from dial up to broadband and have the below security. Is there any other programs that it would be wise to install for this purpose?

    AVG 7.5
    AVG antispyware
    Cyber Hawk
    Spybot
    Spyware Blaster
    Spyware Terminator
    Ad-Aware
    RemoveIt
    Win Patrol
    Zone Alarm
     
    and use Advance Windows Care2 and CCleaner.
    All the above are updated daily and run daily.

          If you don't know the answer, it isn't a dumb question.

                I'll help you out.
                Crawler, the company behind ST had confirmed links wirth IBIS who, in turn were the vendors of the infamous Wintools, Websearch and Huntbar.
                However, Crawler has ceased all affilliations with malware vendors and appear to now be respectable.
                That doesn't mean to say that TS is effective at what it claims to be because, simply put, it isn't.
                ok
