I just bought a new computer and I want it to stay spyware free. I already have Norton Internet Security pack installed and I read in a computer mag that I still need anti-spyware software. They recommended downloading Spybot Search & Destroy but I distrust downloading software from the internet. I think that this software has a good chance of having spyware in it and I'd rather buy the software so.....

What is the best software out to combat spyware?

Get Spybot from the company site.

i just responded to your other thread, but in case you don't check it here is an excellent link ;)

Don't  log into the new system as all powerfull uber god account.

uber god powers for system maintence/installing software.. (sadly, nice theory, but don't work well in real world for most people)
