Screw spybot. They suck. www.adware.com is pretty good. You just have to go delete stuff yourself. It tells you exactly where to go in the registry to delete things. The program would do it for you but that cost money. Picks up everything that ad aware misses. It runs a hell of a lot faster than ad aware or spybot. It also tells you exactly what the program does and is used for so you know if it really isn't that big of a threat. It caught something on mine but that is because it is pre-installed by compaq. It really isn't spyware but could be classified as such. It was some stupid game program.

I think that program is pretty damn good and useful. Although it might not be the best thing for people who are afraid to go into the registry or don't know how to get there.

Also norton isn't really meant to catch spyware. I think they are slowly coming around to it but they are mainly for viruses and worms.
