i would uninstall xoftspySE and paretologic privacy cleaner they are both very poor programs.plus ccleaner cleans up after your internet usage anyway.you might want to try out superantispyware free edition as windows defender's detection rates are not very good.

Good advice from Chris and Colin.



Online Armor is very good.



AVG free is probably the worst of mainstream AV programs, offering very little protection. See: AVG free anti-virus: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/



Avast offers a lot more for the same price: Avast free anti-virus: http://www.avast.com/eng/av4_version_com...



Windows Defender has one two good points, it's free and it provides (some) real-time protection. But it's buggy and doesn't find and remove as much as SuperAntiSpyware (also free). Maybe keep WD for it's real-time protection but use SAS for on-demand scanning.
