Words that end in "-ware" are of the few types of words that can be used for both singular and plural forms of the idea without changing the spelling by adding an "s" or "es" on the end. The correct plural form of the singular word "spyware" is also "spyware." This applies to similar words including but not limited to software, malware, and deer.

Wow, you're recommending that people disable ActiveX in their browsers completely? You're aware that will break a TON of web based applications, including Windows Update, right?

I don't get them on my computer, but frequently have to remove them from the kids' and in-laws' computers

spybot and adaware are all but useless anymore. Spyware is becoming much more sophisticated. Hijack This helps a bit, but even that doesn't solve all the problems.

Spybot and adaware work just fine for me.
