- I want to thank you! Since you first posted these likes I got and am using Popup Popper, it is GREAT!
You're welcome -- glad to hear you found the links useful.
- I am using Mail Washer, it is a JOY!
Yeah, it IS nice, innit? <|:)~ It can "learn" as you use it, so its filters get better over time. It will also alert you to viruses that are attached to some e-mail/SPAM.
- Ad-Aware has found so many files of spyware on my two drives, unbelievable, I supposedly had an excellent spyware on my pc, NOT! What do I do with the quarantined files though?
The AdAware instruction manual says that the Quarantine-files are used to isolate and backup items detected during the scan, giving you an option to reinstall them at a later time. Just open the instruction manual and do a search on "quarantine".
- And is Zone Alarm better than MS firewall or comprable?
I'm not sure -- I've just always used ZA and have found it to be EXCELLENT.
- Question what about replacing IE with Mozilla?
Mozilla gives you better control over popups and cookie/spyware management than MSIE. Another alternative browser that gives you similar control is Opera (also free, but with ads).
