other than that, use Firefox browser, it can sometimes detect web forgery and all sorts of phishing sites.

Recommend it to anyone.
Search-and-destroy Antispyware is the best scan that I have used to keep my PC clean and working like new. It’s a great scanner that finds all the same bugs that other scans such as Norton can find. What’s even better is that it cost less than many of the other options. I found the antispyware solution from Search-and-destroy at http://www.Search-and-destroy.com and decided to give it a try. That was one of the best decisions I ever made. I’m very happy with this scanner and would recommend it to anyone that wants to protect and care for their PC so it will last as long as possible.
