Hey , I have never tried WinPatrol, would that be the same type of program as the spyware guard I am using and the spyware blaster programs? I dont have Adaware SE anymore, but do use Spybot although I need to update the Spybot S&E. I think my antivirus program may have some extra stuff for spyware or adware that helps out as well as my ISP.
