Spyware-Anti Virus recommendations?

[JasonW]

I've used IS3 for a few years and it's been OK. Just got a notice that it ran out and was looking into switching it today.

I have something that knocks my screen down after I log into a forum or onto social network sites. It leaves a space above the page. Sometimes an add shows up, sometimes not. My current program doesn't seem to be able to get rid of it for long. I've also had problems updating Vista service pack 2. Hoping to find one that works better.

Any recommendations?

I got Trend-Micro, so far it has worked great. It saved me on the night CT got infected and has blocked me from clicking alot of links on Facebook and other pages. My Dad uses Webroot, and he still gets infected, but he goes to adult sites ......... lots and lots of adult sites, so I am sure he ignores any warnings it might throw up.

Looks like Trend-Micro it is. If it can withstand Moderns usually internet habit then it can withstand anything any normal guy would put it through. :laugh3:
