best defense vs keyboard loggers

Are Ad-Aware, SpyBot, and SpywareBlaster sufficient? (and, of course,
not getting phished or logging onto weird sites or opening suspicious
attachments)

You may use the phishing filter in IE7, though, it has been reported that it slows
Browser load time.

You may obtain IE7, here;

A HOSTS file would be an excellent addition to your anti-malware arsenal.

Good luck!

Bit hard using the phishing filter in IE7 with 9x, eh Silj?

Not that you're the only one by a long way, but I increasingly wonder
what the point is if you give XP-only info - you know, like the no. of
immunisations in Spybot (which Harry was the only one with the
integrity to correct).

Anyway, like I said Silj - not that you're the only one by a long
bleedin' margin!

Sure would be, Shane, since it just won't take - my error, apologies!

Care to expand on the above, as I believe we've addressed this issue many
times.
