Thanks to everyone for the comments.

Just to point out that in the tut, I did say that I would stick to what I had used myself.

Hence no mention of MS's own anti-spyware, or of a 'more' secure browser [Firefox] to combat pop-ups.

I have recently gone to dual boot with XP Pro on my W2K Pro box. I'll get a copy of the MS Anti-spyware, and try it out on that, as I haven't migrated all my files and settings across yet.

Might even go wild and get me some of that there FireFox I've heard so much about
