Re: Spyware

I do have a Norton software firewall. I was just checking on hardware and/or new software. Thanks for your suggestions. I have read some mixed reviews about the Linksys. I am just trying to sort everything out before buying something.

Nope, no router. Just DSL plugged into the modem.

I've had excellent results with Ad-Aware. I used it couple months ago along with SmitfraudFix when a trojan hijacked my computer.

It still has stuff in the registry and some other places.

My computer came with Norton. It has expired and I don't want to renew the subscription. How can I get it completely off my computer to load a new antivirus. Just using the uninstall still leaves some files so I can't load a new program. I am using Windows XP.

Thanks for any tips.
