[gui-talk] looking for a good spyware program

[Don H]

I used Spy Sweeper for 3 years and don't know if it is just my experience 
but the only thing it ever caught was the normal run of the mill tracking 
cookies which in my experience are little in the way of threat and are 
easily removed by just clearing your cookies on a frequent basis.  I also 
found that Spy Sweeper slowed my system.
