If if buy anti-virus with spyware, is another spyware ap needed?"?

I'm planning to buy Kaspersky's anti-virus software that has spyware included. Wasn't sure if their spyware was going to be that good because it seems like more of an add on. I was thinking of getting Spy Doctor for my anti spyware ap. What do you think? Should I get another anti spyware ap and is it ok if I use both at the same time (Kaspersky and Spy Doctor)?

If you're referring to Spyware Doctor, I would not recommend running that along with Kaspersky. Spyware Doctor uses a realtime engine, as does Kaspersky, for protecting against spyware, and in my experience with Spyware Doctor, it will conflict with ANY other realtime antispyware program. For programs that will not conflict, consider these freeware options:



Spyware Terminator (http://www.SpywareTerminator.com)



will provide (in my experience) nonconflicting realtime protection, while



Ad-Aware Free (http://www.lavasoftusa.com) and



Spybot S%26D (http://www.safer-networking.org) will give you additional removal ability, and in the case of Spybot's innoculation feature, passive realtime protection. I do not recommend using its teatimer function.
