questions, wasn't sure where this went

I recently downloaded pest patrol, zone alert, spyware guard and hijack this. I allowed AIM access to the internet, but aim won't connect

i know this will probably get moved, but i wasn't sure where it went

 

Hi XtremeRunnerARS

What is zone alert ? zone alarm the firewall ?

Pest patrol and spywaresweeper are Ok , getting better all the time
but the most popular are SpyBot S&D and Adaware, then if there are still any problems Posting a hjackthis log
Scanning with SpyBot and Adaware:

Im unfamilur with both ZA (zone alarm) and AIM , so if thats the only problem some one else here will get involved I hope
