How well does Ad Aware SE protect your computer?

Our Recommendation:
Although we really liked Ad Aware 2010, its 3rd place finish in our annual spyware blockers review leaves us no choice but to recommend another spyware blocker. ParetoLogic’s XoftSpySE was our #1 spyware blocker for 2010 and receives our top recommendation.
