Is this a good method for removing Spyware? I run avast throgh scan, then i run avg anti spyware and superantispyware. Then bitdefender online, and kasperky online. Is thatgood for protecting my computer?

The reason i ask this is because recently i have removed some spyware applications to improve over all game performance. Is that combo good for getting rid of all spyware?

Do you have any virus protection installed on your computer as you don't mention one.

Thats good enough and probably too much.
If I were you I would run scans with avast, super and avg and then maybe run kaspersky every once in a while. I hope your not running these scans every day or anything.. every week or two should be more then enough.

Yes i don't scan every day, usally once a week. I guess im all set, i am being much more precautious of the programs i install as i don't like spyware. I hope i never have to post another hjt log for anyalsis. It causes a great feeling of unsureness, you don't know if you can enter your personal information on your own computer. I am much more aware now. I guess im set =D.

I recommend going through the Freeware thread on this very forum, there's lot's of free and safe goodies listed in there that won't infect your PC.
