The *only* problem I've had with SG is that it disables my "tooltips" when
running in the background. System is W98se P4 2.0Ghz 40 GB HD-D Dell
Optiplex GX240. When the last two versions were released, I queried at
Spyware info forums, and some had this problem; some didn't. Some
recommendations were made as to disabling one of the three main functions,
but even that was inconclusive, as it did not affect all machines,
regardless of OS, the same way. So, other than that,*zero* problems with SG.

In my "arsenal":
CWShredder
SpywareBlaster
SpywareGuard
HijackThis
Spybot S&D
Ad-Aware plus VX2 plug -in
PestPatrol
ZA Pro
AVG 6 (free)
CWS.SmartKiller removal utility
http://www.safer-networking.org/files/delcwssk.zip
Stinger (if something would call for it's use)
avast! Virus Cleaner (same as above)
All programs work fine without conflict.

I also use some sundry Items as well, should the situation call for it.
