What are some useful programs to help keep one's computer safe from spyware?
I read somewhere that there is an app that allows you to track who is tracking you.

Malware Bytes is helpful to keep your machine clean.

A nice free antivirus program is avast.

A good registry cleaner is CC cleaner.

That should help. All free.

For Firefox there's also Flash Block if you have Flash, and the Profound Censor add on to censor rotten language.

Firefox is slower than chrome. Sometimes it causes my AVS media player to stop. I have a fast laptop, and I like listening to gregorian chant as I browse this forum, but firefox seems to have this flaw...

IT doesn't seem quite as good as it used to be, but the add ons are what are the draw for it.

For the most part what problems I've run into with have been trying to visit Microsoft's websites with it. . .  :rolleyes:
