I have been using the internet for last two years and everything worked fine. However, since few months ago, I could not defend from viruses, especially Trojans. I even reinstalled my Windows few times but it did not help me for a long. After a day or two on the Internet and I have the same problems. Since yesterday, I start using Opera and Spybot. Is it true that Spybot comes with an adware? Does Spybot have malware database updates?

There are other browsers beside the Internet explorer. Opera is definitely one of the most popular browsers on the net. Firefox is even more popular. Many users think that they are better then Explorer. I do not think that your problems are related to using Explorer. I am also spending much time on the Internet, I am using Internet Explorer, and I do not have any problems. That my opinion is right shows that first place as the most popular internet browser goes to Internet explorer. You just need some reliable anti-spyware software like SpyBot, which is efficient and free and have regular updates. I do not know that thing about adware, but I am sure if it comes with SpyBot, it is not dangerous. You also need some good anti-virus software, which is efficient and free. I personally use AVG Free and I am completely satisfied. If you have Windows XP, you will also need SP 2 to be installed.
