Spyware Programs
I need to know if I should get some type of Spyware protection, I have McAfee Security and I am on dial-up internet. If anyone knows any good programs, please post it here. Thanks for any help

Webroot's Spy Sweeper is one of the best spyware programs I've ever seen. I even bought it!

Me: This is coming from the kid who doesn't know what Viagra is!
Ko: It's cold medicine, right?
Our Group: NO!!!
Me: Can I just say?
Dylan: Sure, it's no weirder than what normally comes out of your mouth.
Me: (says what)
Ko: .....What's that?
Me: ......*starts crying*
Carley: STEVE! STEVE GET OVER HERE AND TELL KO WHAT VIAGRA DOES!
Steve: See, it's like this: The bridge goes up and the soldiers rush out....
Tiff: Aww, you killed someone for me. That's so sweet in a f***ed up sort of way!

Also be sure to use both programs, as one program may remove what
the other program can't, and vice versa.

Just keep in mind that those programs only eliminate spyware, not block it from your computer.

Flesh may cross the portal,
and seek it’s master Death.
Life may go where Death has trod,
and challenge, like Scheherazade,
he who reigns beneath the sod,
to spare a mortal’s breath.

I also forgot to mention that you should also install Spyware Blaster as well.
Also, Spybot has an immunization feature!

And really, why shouldn't we be afraid? In case you haven't heard, life is terminal. Cigarettes will kill you. So will your cellphone. Your car is a deadly weapon and alcohol is a quiet killer. Don't lick the lead-based paint on the walls. Don't lick the back of a postage stamp and certainly don't lick any strangers! That will bring you down quickly indeed. Don't drink the water but don't drink less than eight glasses a day. Your enviroment is toxic, your natural resources are dwindling, your days are numbered, but what ever you do, don't panic! The stress, don't you know, will kill you.

Peachvampiress has an account on DeviantArt. Insanity Within.
And a Myspace account for her clothing designs.

I also have on mine ZoneAlarm, the firewall program. It tells you when any program is trying to access the Internet and lets you tell it no. Which doesn't stop spyware form being installed, but stops it from being effective.

The Croonerism Spate (explanations upon request)
Be careful with this one, there is a bit of a pun involved. Dr. Spooner described his visit to a castle: "In the center of the fortress was the Palace Court. The gated entrance to this area was the court palace."
