To Ilya: PC vs. Mac debate/contest/benchmarks

Spybot is as effective against spyware as farting in your USB ports. I’d love to see it actually prevent something. :rofl

The registry cleaner does work well for removing recursive entries and broken, leftover entries from old software. Other than that, I would use it on a clients computer and remove it after I was done.

If you were defragging your SSD, I would have blocked you permanently. There’s generally no point to defragging a modern HDD that often. The fragmentation is minimal and will rarely affect speed at all. Once a month is excessive as far as I’m concerned.

You could block that in the hosts file easily. ZoneAlarm is a major piece of trash, I can’t think of one good reason that anyone would ever load it on a machine. More power to you, bro.
