UNSOLVED
- You should consider adding Spybot Search and Destroy. It blocks over 39,000 bad products.You might also add Spyware Blaster, it also blocks bad stuff. I have both, in addition to Windows Defender and the Free SuperAntiSpyware. No conflicts amongst the programs that I am aware of.
- Don't forget one or two browser plug-ins such as McAfee's Site Advisor, FireTrust's SiteHound or TrendProtect by Trendmicro.
Site Advisor and TrendProtect assign a safety rating to domains listed in your search engine. They add a new button to your browser's toolbar area. The icon and color of the button changes to indicate whether the page currently open is safe, unsafe, trusted, or unrated, or whether it contains unwanted content.
The following color codes are used to indicate the safety of each site.
Red for Warning
Yellow for Use Caution
Green for Safe
Grey for Unknown
Sitehound is a little different, but if interested, you can read about it here: http://www.firetrust.com/en/products/sitehound
Before using or purchasing any Spyware/Malware protection/removal program, always check the following Rogue/Suspect Spyware Lists.
