We are starting to notice an uptick in the amount of spyware present on PCs.. it seems as though the spyware makers have lulled us to sleep and are ready for the next wave of attack. The timing is good, as the old version of Ad Aware does not update any more, Windows Defender does not pick up all spywares and the new version of Ad Aware (Ad Aware 2007) is not very good. Spybot 1.5 is the best defence against spyware these days; it scans for over 100,000 infections. Keep your PC safe!
