Andy, your website looks great!  I'm looking forward to exploring it more
thoroughly.  My only recommended addition is to also add Spybot Search &
Destroy from http://security.kolla.de.  I run it and AdAware together for
extra protection...  Thanks for the Web Site!

Hi Folks,
I'm sure we all have friends, relatives and possibly colleagues who
insist on using the Internet with zero security, their rationale usually
being "Who would be interested in what is one my computer" .....  " I
paid for antivirus 3 years ago, and I haven't changed my computer so it
should still work"

We hold a sweepstake at work for the relative with the most viruses, I
was winning with 44 for a relative who'll remain nameless, but was
beaten just before Christmas by a guys Uncle with 67!

Anyway, back to the topic.  I have been collecting links to free
security tools for a variety of purposes  Anti Virus, Personal
Firewalls, Net Nanny's and Spyware which is at
http://www.securitywizardry.com/mischomeuse.htm I've still to find a
free antispam tool for Windows Outlook and Outlook Express, but I think
the page has sufficient content for it to be useful.  Please let me know
if you have any suggestions for improving the advice, products or
content.

I did have one recommendation for including a free clampdown tool for
windows, but haven't found one that is easy enough for the average
homeuser, any ideas?

take care
-andy
