Carol, I forgot to take out the "...and more".  I put that in and then wrote the 
rest of the apps forgetting to take out the "...many more".  

I didnt say I had spybot and cwshredder in the background, thats not even a feature 
on it.  Spywareblaster has to run in background I thought, when you minimize it it 
goes hidden in the tray and it protects against stuff.  Same with spywareguiard. 
 Antivirusgaurd does the same thing as spywareguard but for viruses.  I don't use 
mcafee too much and it didn't protect, it just scans so I got antvirusgaurd to protect 
against incoming viruses.  So let me write it out for all of you lol

I use:

1. McAfee - Antvirus scanning. (runs in background for updates and like a daily virus 
scan)
2. Windows Firewall - as my firewall (runs in background ofcourse, its a firewall)
3. Spybot - To get rid of spyware
4. Adaware SE - to get rid of spyware spybot didn't get rid of.
5. Spyware Guard - to protect from incoming spyware (runs in background) 
6. Spyware Blaster - to protect from incoming spyware spyware guard didn't. (runs 
in background 
7. CW Shredder - to get rid of those annoying toolbars that will try to take over 
my internet.
8. AntiVirxp - to scan for viruses MCafee couldn't find.
9. AntiVir Guard - to protect me from incoming viruses. (runs in background 

**When I say runs in background I mean when you exit the program it still works. 
 Like when you press minimize on spywareblaster it is still protecting you but its 
not shown.

I have optimal protection however it is demanding. :'(
