IF you disable cookies, you ,lose alot of Intenret acess, you can "firewwall" your entire computer, but you won't get online.

As for the bes SPYWARE dection and removal systems, here's my list:

1. ZoneAlarmPro w/ PestPatrol Bundle (Works great, finds cracking tools and other Adware as well) moren on the reason for Including ZoneAlarm in a minute, totla cost $45.00

2. AdAware, good detection and removal ssystem, but is "hackable" by a "virus" in some spyweare that deletes its "Detection" files, although not considered to be a "true" virus, it does the same thing. Cost ZERO.

3. Pop-UP Cop, has been mentionee d at GT for awhile, most people say it wokrs great, but I haven't used ity so I can't comment, don't know the cost, so I won't go there.

About ZoneAlarmPro w/PestPatrol Bundle, PestPatrol is inlcuded for free in this "Bundle", you're really paying for ZA Pro, PestPatrol is the "Spyware/Adware" removal program and works great on my PC, ZA Pro version 3.x has a niufty featre that ZoneAlram (regular free version) doesn't have, there's an option to "Automatically Block Pop-up ads that don't load in 'X' amount of seconds", so you could say, if this ad doesn't laod in "2 seconds", block it, I find this useful for websites that bombard you with spyware, and after you block the ad, run PestPatrol and nuke the spyware. Hope this helps.
