Hi Steve and List,

Currently, I am running the following anti-spyware programs:

1.  Add-Aware--with JAWS scripts available on the JFW Lite site under 
programs, it is quite accessible;
2.  Spy Bot Search And Destroy--which is quite accessible with all screen 
readers if you change the default view setting under preferences to blind 
friendly;
3.  the Trend Micro Internet Security 2007 Suite which includes anti-spyware 
software--the spyware utility of which is not very accessible, but it is 
usable if you use your JAWS/mouse cursor (supposedly, Trend is aware of the 
various difficulties of accessibility that have been slowly introduced over 
the years and they plan to offer a free update sometime soon that will give 
blind users extra options--off by default--that when turned on--will 
supposedly solve these accessibility problems.)

The reason I mention all this is because each and every one of the 
anti-spyware programs seem to find different problems--mostly different 
tracking cookies.  Tracking cookies are usually only a minor annoyance, but 
all anti-spyware programs flag them--because there are the odd sites that 
contain dangerous cookies that will point you to hack sites or try to 
install Trojans.

I hope this helps.

Phil,

I'm not sure we ever did.  Spybot is fairly speech friendly, but opinions
differ about whether it's the best.  I can't speak to the speech
friendliness of other anti spyware programs, but I've heard that it's best
to have more than one on your system.  I think they're all quirky in their
own ways, so the question comes down to how much you can tolerate the
quirks, and how much you're willing to pay for the privilege of being
annoyed.

Steve
