You know what is funny, all the problems PC people have, like the stuff you guys just wrote about I have never had. I have owned my MAC G4 for four years and (knock on wood) have never once had a problem. Once you go Mac you dont go back. Granted my profession is in the design field, so I'm in a way required to use a Mac. However I had a PC and had to deal with the problems and the thing can't hold a candle to my computer now.

Alas this is one mans opinion and I dont want to start a nerd battle

Gotta agree with JohnR on this one - no one program seems to clean all the spyware/malware off a machine - frequently I run 3 programs on a machine to clean all of the stuff. Spyware can bring a machine to its knees. Ad-Aware SE, SpyBot Search & Destroy, Pest Patrol (older version better IMO), & Web Root Spy Sweeper has a fully functional trial download. Microsoft has a Beta version of their spyware detection and removal program that is free. I probably clean 5 to 7 machines a week of this stuff and it is a PITA.
