Excuse the stupid question, but i'm a newbie. My Windows XP laptop is
running Panda Titanium 2006 which has antispyware. I also have Windows
Defender, PopupCop, AdAdware and Spybot.
I have collected them as I have gone along but do I need them? Will Panda
with antispyware do the job?

If they're all doing on-demand scanning and in memory at the same
time, yeah I'd say you have too many!

A little.

For 97% accurate total computer protection, I recommend:

Trend Micro Pc-Cillin Internet Security 2007:
http://www.trendmicro.com/en/products/desktop/pc-cillin/evaluate/overview.htm

SUPERAntiSpyware Professional:
http://www.superantispyware.com/shoppingcart.html?action=add&sku=SAS000

You need to pay money for both, but it's worth it in the long run.
