I have a few different anti-virus, anti-spyware, and other protection software. I think one of them

I suspect one of them may be causing others not to be able to update. How can I determine the problem?

This is what I have:

Adaware (from lavasoft): Currently, when I try to connect for updates, I keep getting an error, and am unable to connect. This has been going on for a week.

Spybot Search and Destroy: No probs. Possible that the SD Resident is the problem.

PC Tools Threat Fire %26 Firewall: I suspect it may be one of these that is causing the problem, but am not sure.

AVG: Anti-Virus %26 Anti-Spyware: No probs; could be causing the probs.

Panicware Pop-up Blocker: I don't think this is causing the problems.

Spyware Terminator: This program just stopped working. I tried to unistall, and reinstall, but I can't seem to reinstall it. "Windows cannot access the specific path...you may not have permission..." I know it had been working, until maybe a week ago. Then, when adware stopped working, I suspected a problem.
