Ad - Aware With the ability to scan your RAM, Registry, hard drives, and external storage devices for known data - mining, advertising, and tracking components, Ad - Aware 2007 easily can clean your system, allowing you to maintain a higher degree of privacy while you surf the Web.

SpywareBlaster 4 SpywareBlaster doesn't scan for and clean spyware - it prevents it from being installed in the first place. SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of ActiveX - based spyware, adware, dialers, browser hijackers, and other potentially unwanted programs.

You do not need 3. It is not a bad idea to use 2, especially if one is just a scanner and not running real - time protection. I use AVG free anti - spyware which runs real - time for 30 days, then drops back to scanner only, you can manually update it and scan with it at intervals, then I use the free Spyware doctor starter edition from Google updater as it does provide real - time protection, although the pay version has more real time services. This does keep the machine clean, I have hundreds of customers using this combination along with AVG free anti - virus
I would say Ad - Aware and Spyware Doctor don't know anymore, sorry. IMO Ad - Aware is currently the best one, as it scans spyware, adware and malware. I don't know about other people, but my anti - spyware is not running the whole time, I just do some regular checkups every now and then. Therefore, I doubt you would have to worry about system resources. Also, these programs don't take up much space on the hard drive 100mb max. I don't really see any pros or cons for using each one, I guess you should just try them and see what suits you best. Finally, no it is not bad to have three anti - spyware programs on your computer. Hope I helped Ad - Aware: lavasoftusa.com / Spyware Doctor: pctools.com / spyware - doctor /

spybot search and destroy - AVG - AVAST
I actually recommend having 3 different programs installed, as they all do different things well: 1. Spyware Terminator spywareterminator.com / real - time, turn off web security guard 2. Superantispyware superantispyware.com / no realtime; for scanning 3. Spybot Search&Destroy safer - networking.org / one of the first programs, so scanning not great; use immunise feature
Ad - Aware and Spybot - Search & Destroy are the only ones I can think of. They shouldn't slow your computer significantly. There's probably not much difference, just personal preference. I don't think there's any harm in multiple anti - spyware; it's not an anti - virus program
The best Two are Ad aware from lavasoft.com / and Spybot Search and Destroy from safer - networking.org / en / index.html Ad aware is a 27mb download and Spybot is 35 mb download It is good to run both programs on your computer because one program will pick up spyware the other one doesnt. It is also important to check for spyware updates regularly to keep your programs up to date with the latest spyware out there
