Has any antivirus or anti-spyware app you've had caught anything that would have harmed you? I have company-mandated antivirus at work and the only thing it catches are things that wouldn't have affected me, anyway: phishing links, virus/Trojan-laden email attachments, etc.
We have computer geek Joepole who is so superior to us "average Joes" that he doesn't need spyware etc. Most people have spyware because we are being cautious and maybe unnecessarily so but I'd rather err on the side of caution. Oh to live the life of Joepole!!!
