We use both Ad-Aware SE (www.lavasoftusa.com) and Spy-bot Search and Destroy
(www.spybot.info). We also use a some what proactive solution called
SpywareBlaster (www.javacoolsoftware.com) which adds deny entries into IE
and Mozilla/Firefox browsers to stop alot of cookies and malware.

Subject: [OPLINTECH] spyware & malware
Hello,
We are planning an XP & Office 2003 roll out to replace NT 4.0 and Office
2000 on our 350+ staff workstations. We have Windows 2003 on our server.
Several of our staff workstation's browsers (IE) have been hijacked with
malware. How are you preventing spyware at your locations? What tools are
you using? Any help is appreciated. Thanks,
ChrisZ
