Hi spywaters,
        I use AVG, Spybot S&D, Popup Stopper, Adaware SE, Hijack This,
CWShredder, & Stinger.. I update AVG daily, and update the rest
weekly. I have set my IE options to prompt for cookies and controls
that are unsigned. I use a hosts file. I keep Spybot S&D's "Tea
Timer" on.
        I recently uninstalled Pest Patrol, Free edition, as I can no
longer update it and it seemed to be conflicting with Spybot S&D.
        Is there any other FREE malware protection program that I should
install?

        Caveat: I'm unemployed, gone back to school, older than dust,
and real tight with money. Spending money freaks me out, so
suggestions for Free programs are preferred.
