I have found Lavasoft's Ad-aware to work well. Ad-aware "personal" is free. You can download it from lavasoft.com.

How did you get spyware in the first place? Is it using IE6, IE7, Firefox or Opera? Just out of curiosity.

Oh. Too bad. Do you believe that eversince I fully migrated to Firefox, I haven't got any spyware? Well, I had two, but they were the Windows Update tracking cookies, which should not be identified as spyware, and on IE6. Maybe you guys aren't careful enough when surfing.
