Spyware, browser toolbars, porn dialers.... please kill yourselves.

You know all the crap that Adaware and Spybot find and kill.... well.... is there a program that will tell me when that stuff happens and prevents it... like Norton for viruii?

It pisses me off soooo much when I get that crap.... especially when I only go to normal sites! Stupid pop-ups that install porn dialers on your machine?!?! WTF!

Sooo.... anyone know of any cool apps that prevent it? (Please don't say Mozilla or Opera)

Thanks!

The pay version of Ad Aware actively scans for this stuff and snipes it in the background.

Cheers!

Doesn't Spybot's immunize feature do this?

I put myself through college by revenues generated from porn dialers.
