   Is Ad-Aware SE spyware? My brother in law told me this this morning. I"ve been using it for a while now and spy bot too and I haven't had any problems that I'm aware of.
   
   Anyone know if it's true??
   
   Thanks,
   Connie

   Tell your brother in law he gave us a good laugh Connie! Then tell them he needs to do a lot more reading about spyware and programs used to combat it. Below is a good starting point:
