I realise that it all looks a bit hectic but most of these I've only added since the attack... I was concerned that somethings are being picked up by one and not the other.

I am not a fan of McAfee but it was bundled with the laptop. I refuse to pay the subscription so it is probably redundant now and it will be the first thing to go.

Norton does not seem to be very efficient but is at least not conflicting with anything else. I'm not overly confident with it's helpfulness so I wanted a safety net.

SpySweeper (Webroot) was recommended by another thread on Daniweb but without paying for the registration all it does is inform you of the problem not repair it.

Spybot and Spyware Doctor have been excellent (though teatimer is a pain in the ass)

I'll try avast and avira now and provide the info you asked for asap.
(Though I have been trying not to run them all together to avoid confliction.)
