    What can Ad Muncher do for you?

    Block advertising in all browsers.

    Kill unwanted popups in all browsers.

    Speed up page loading, thanks to the missing ads and pop up windows.

    Prevent annoying site behaviors.

    Block many spyware, adware and dialer installers.

    Work immediately out of the box, thanks to the most extensive advertising filter list available.

    Remove banners in programs like ICQ, Morpheus, Kazaa, Grokster, PalTalk, iMesh, Bearshare, LimeWire, etc.

    Filter quickly and reliably, thanks to eight years of constant development and feedback from users.

    Try these and see what they can do for you.

    If you think that you have an infection try these programs, ALL
    If you want to try different programs, try these.

    First and foremost, these are MY opinions and have experienced several machines that had these on them.

    Stop using the following software:
    – AVG –
    – Ad Aware SE –
    – Spybot Search and Destroy –
    – Ewido –
    – McAfee –
    – Housecalls –
    – Trendmicro –
    – Panda –
    – Norton –
    – eTrust –
    – Kaspersky –

    Decent programs to install and use

    Adaware will pick up tracking cookies, which you acquire at any website visited.

    You can use SpywareBlaster however. It is a free program and adds an extra layer of protection. You will need to check for and enable updates manually once a week or so. It uses no system resources.
    SpywareBlaster (inoculates, not a spyware removal tool)

    Another good antispyware tool is Superantispyware

    If you are using Internet Explorer and you get pop us all the time, even after cleaning up the mess, then consider getting FireFox. Visit and get this free web browser. It has many features of Internet Explorer 7, but not ActiveX, so you still need Internet Explorer for some websites.

    You should use Windows Updates to get some of the Security related fixes.

    Good luck and Happy Computing!

    Download SpywareBlaster—http://majorgeeks.com/download2859.html
    SpywareBlaster doesn’t scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being installed.

    It’s main features include:
    - Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.
    - Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.
    - Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.
