the new MS anti-spyware tool can keep a sentry lookout on your browser settings, which is a part of the puzzle. i don't know if other spyware tools do this, too,

SpywareGuard, available at http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html does this too.

ad-aware) don't seem to, at least in the versions i've been using for the
past 6 mos.

AFAIK, they don't work in "Sentry" mode (I didn't test the Tea Timer component). In addition to these, I also use Spyware Blaster.

It looks like a good solution is as always : use a combination of tools with different philosophy + keep reliable backups nearby. -- Saad Kadhi "He who relieves the poor makes Ahura king"
