I installed Pest Patrol last year and it was fairly easy to use but I found the interface to be lame and the instructions confusing at times.

Rating:  - One of the better pay programs
No single anti spyware program will find everything. But the sure bets are: Pay programs: Etrust's Pest Patrol, Webroots Spy Sweeper.
Free Programs: Ad Aware, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Microsoft's Beta Anti-Spyware... I have all of these.

Rating: - Good Product Gone Bad
This was once the best Antispyware program by far, but now that Computer Associates bought it and produced version 5. I must now try to find a new program to use. The user interface is now absolutly terrible and licensing checks every time the program is started is totaly annoying. This should now be put in the dumper along with CA's EZtrust products. Stay Away!!
