I think we could do without both, but if I had to make a choice I would take windows defender, more discreet, they would forget it was even Shift not recall. I have not tried the latest version of adware

Re: Windows Defender vs Ad-aware

Windows Defender is doomed to disappear as MSE (Microsoft Security Essentials) is the new tool AV / AS Microsoft. Antvir those who already have a spyware (Antivirus is not alone in this case, more and more anti-virus software include a spyware). So in terms of software protection a firewall + an AV / AS in Resident Shield + Periodic scan with MBAM (Malwarebytes' Anti-malware). This is sufficient for a reasonable and rational use of travel in cyberspace.

malwarebytes antimalware would be more better option than Ad-aware and Spybot .even it is free core protection for your PC with real-time monitoring, threat alerts, and automatic updates.malwarebytes provides all this with more protection .
