Yep - unfortunately, it's necessary to have the spyware and anti-virus.

If people don't have current anti-virus updateing near daily and are to cheap to buy it - downoad AVG Free Anti-virus from GRISOFT: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1

For spyware, yhou really need two to three systems running, at least one proactively all the time: Get lavasoft.de Adaware which will CLEAN most spyware but the free version only cleans after the fact, must pay for the proactive version.

COmbine this with one or two others, say if you have COX cable like I do there is their free version, then add another system, Maybe Micro$ofts free one (though that is bordering on spyware from what I've heard - allowing "partners" that deal in spyware by the filters)...
