    Security/Spyware


    How can I check to see if an app or any programs have been downloaded onto my laptop that relate to spyware? I believe that my iphone and my laptop have been synced with my husbands. I believe thay he’s added something- I am too computer illiterate to know the difference- I assume he has jaikbroken my phone but I would’n really know except for the fact that ifd things keep happening. Where do I go to find if he has added something and how do I get it off?

    :)

    Anti virus, Trojan's and Spyware.

    Hmmm, I use AVG Email Server Antivirus, Zonealarm Pro, and many many spyware programs... The best one being BPS Anti-Spyware. Ad-aware SE is just garbage now, but if you want spyware protection with out nothing running i suggest using Spyware Blaster. Heres a list of great programs that i use and i think are some are the best. Pest Patrol, Spyware Doctor, Spybot, Bazooka, Spyware Blaster, and BPS Anti-Spyware. Those are really great anti-spyware programs. Oh and the new Zonealarm Pro I dont like at all becuase it alerts you about everything even if you turn alerts off so i use version 6.0.667.000 which is one of the best newer ones.

    I still don't know if I need to purchase additional antivirus/spyware from McAfee, Norton or Clampi? Or am I covered by Microsoft Spyware Security?

    Gamespy arcade spyware?

    I like to keep my computer very secure to the point of abnormal paranoia however that doesn't stop me playing my online games. Recently my antivirus and antispyware tools have listed Gamespy arcade as medium risk spyware*Wtf :wtf: with the reason that it takes personal information from you and the like.

    To my knowledge it definitely is not spyware and is very useful especially for older games, does anyone know otherwise?
