Spyware, Adware, viruses, trojans and other stupid crap like that is the exact reason I want to reinstall XP, that and so I can get a new/different distro of linux installed with out grub over righting my MBR.

Thats not a lot of spyware. As long as you use Spybot S&D and Ad Aware, to remove spyware regularly, you shouldn't have much of a problem. It helps to use Mozilla Firefox to prevent getting spyware in the first place. Also Spyware Blaster is good at preventing spyware if you use either IE or Firefox.

All the downloads mentioned are available at download.com

Hey, it's not as bad as using a FIRESHARING program. Those are SATAN! My roommate was running one and our "highspeed internet" went down to 15k/second! And the program was doing NOTHING!

Or was it...
