Thanks everyone for your informative replies. Yes, I'm planning to get
Firefox right away, so perhaps continuing to use the freeware spyware
scanners will be enough.

FireFox does have some advantages,but it also has some drawbacks.
If you use it and have a problem with certain websites, just click out and use
IE.

But remember to mail the site admin to tell him his site isn't standards-compliant and
(at least in the UK) doesn't conform to accessibility legislation
