    I had adaware but had had problems when running it. However I downloaded 
the latest build last night and found 94 critical objects all data miner. 
Did the same with spybot and found 42 nasties and today ran ClamWin and 
found 4 viruses in Word.
        I feel as though I should try and run the Ubuntu disk again and see 
what I get as nearly half of the infections found by Spybot were in my 
registry files.
            One question though:
I have a virus checker on my machine from Computer Associates called 
E-Trust. It auto updates and is supposed to check all incoming. As ClamWin 
needs to be manually updated and doesn't appear to be on all the time will 
the two conflict?cheers Leo.
