Default Re: spyware etc.

Hello and welcome to PC Help Forum.

Ahhhh need a little more spcace on the hard drive?You can keep spybot and AVG.
Others may give a diffrent opinion.

They are not all a nessasary and if you need other scanners you can always download and install when needed.

Nope, I think you nailed it JB. Keep the essentials with active scanning. The others are ok to install as and when you need them.
