i found a great piece of spyware cleaner that works great.  It's called Spybot Search and Destroy, and it works wonders.  Best of all.... it's free.... check it out!

I run SpyBot S&D every now and again.  Works like a charm.

I agree, Spybot is a good program, I run it every once in a while just to be safe. Most of the time the only thing it picks up are cookies. I've even taken steps to ensure that cookies are not kept after closing Opera.

I use the hell out of Spybot S&D at work.

No spyware there ever since.

I've used Spybot and Adaware6 for quite some time.  There is another that I've just recently come across, Spy Sweeper.  It seems to have found several things the first two didn't.
