I agree. Both Ad-Aware and SpyBot are very good. The only thing you might want to watch out for is the occasional instance in which an anti-virus program will identify SpyBot itself as a virus. I'm not sure why, but I've had it happen here at work. Go figure.

it.  But, make sure you *also* use SpyBot S&D.
