free antispyware
I would like to know if there are any GOOD free antispyware programs with realtime protection? I know of Spybot, ad-aware and spyware terminator but they have poor defence so i will definately not go for them.

Suggestions??

I use SAS as a scanner at the moment and if i cant find a free prog with realtime i will use the paid version of it because IMHO, it is a good antispyware program.

Might also want to try Malwarebytes Anti Malware. Exceptionally good product. It's free if you don't want real time protection, however having said that for 20 odd dollars you can get a lifetime licence that will give you the real time protection.
