A non-expert here:
Anyone have an opinion on:
Avast vs AVG as free virus software?
Spyware Blaster (not as a spyware detector/remover, but as a blocker)?

Also, I'm intimidated by what I read about the complexity of Hyjack This. I've been using Win Patrol for years to avoid homepage highjacks and unauthorized start up programs. Anyone have any experience/opinions of it?

I get a bit of system slowdown with AVG Antispyware- does Super AntiSpyware have a smaller memory footprint?
Thanks!
