Likewise, I always run from LiveCD. My HDInstalls are for testing, and my in-laws.
I agree with AwPhuch on the malware programs. What I don't like is WHY do they both find items the other package won't?
Adaware is good about frequent updates, but LOUSY on detecting and removing most of what I find on M$ boxes.
S&D finds a LOT of stuff that adaware leaves behind, but the updating and support has been LOUSY up until recently.
And it's my opinion that the 0-30 day malware will still have free reign in your windoze box until one of these programs picks it up and adds it to their updates.
So don't get TOO COMFORTABLE doin' your thang' on M$. Recently IE and IIS have been front page in the news, so if I were inclined to use them, I'd certainly have other additions to my arsenal like ZoneAlarm, BitDefender, etc..
Backup, backup, backup.... ( and always keep a DSL CD within reach )
