Woollcott asked:
I have a new computer, and it had certain software (primarily anti-adware & anti-virus) already on. I have been “stung” by malicious software, and am now very cautious and suspicious. I have been given some TREMENDOUS! advice from “Yahoo Answers,” concerning various pieces of software (both free and commercial) & have been advised to check these out by a fair and impartial reviewer. I have seen references to Software Reviews, so I know they are “out there.” But I imagine there must be a hundred of them, and that many of them are disguised ads or supporters of the products of a specific company. Does anyone know of a GOOD and impartial site that does software reviews?

Virus scanners are only for viruses. Trojans are another story. You need a trojan scanner. As well as an adware scanner, and firewall. Some virus scanners scan for spyware too, yet you should also have a spyware scanner for they aren’t perfect. Please review Cnet. Good luck and Happy Holidays

3.For spyware, see this, that I suggested someone else some time back.
Do use the pop-up blocking feature of Windows XP, Pack 2. If you don’t have XP, use google toolbar that can block pop-ups very effectively.
