AVG Free 7.5
SpyBot - Search and Destroy
SpywareBlaster
A2 Free

I ALSO use HijackThis every two weeks or so (I did last... whenever), and I have ZoneAlarm Free as a firewall.

Reinstall?? I haven't reinstalled Windows in... *checks* Uh... it doesn't say... about 3 months, maybe? I did it right before school started, so that'd be in LATE August... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875351Thats happened to me a few Times this week since i installed SecondLife
