its differnet for every computer, but the norm should be 25-40 more or less. i wouldnt worry too much on HOW MANY u got running, just be concerned which ones you're running.

download "AdAware" and "Spybot: Search and Destroy". Each finds spyware that the other one doesnt. The reason they keep coming back, is (im assuming) you dont have a firewall. Download one. I have Zonealarm, its free and does the job well.

Another reason that you have loads of spyware, is that you're probably clicking adds, or on "websites" that do it without your consent. If you wanna stop this, download the web-browser "Mozilla Firefox" and it automatically blocks pop-ups etc. If you cant be arsed to do that, download the google toolbar. Its really handy as you can search from the little box on the bar, and it blocks popups too.

Sorted

28 on mine, i had to keep print servers on or my printer wouldnt work also goddamn norton throws a wobbly if you switch off DCOM process

If you are having running problems, get a program called hijackthis, and remove stuff which looks dodgy.
