    I use both Adaware and Spybot, and the latter always seems to find more than Adaware.

    You can find them both at the download page.

    Duties are not performed for duty's sake, but because their neglect would make the man uncomfortable. A man performs but one duty - the duty of contenting his spirit, the duty of making himself agreeable to himself.

    Don't just trust ad aware alone!
    It doesn't find everything.
    I use a combo.
    Infact I use everone I can get my hands on and they all find different things.
    Get everyone of them is my opinion.

    Adaware,Pest Patrol Corporate,Spybot S&D,Bullet Proof Software.
    Every single one of those finds stuff that the other one don't.
    I know this from running them many times concurrently.

    Btw when Spybot finds that you have Bullet Proof Software on your comp it will want to delete it!
    Spybot accuses BPS of stealing their data base and thus wants to delete it.
    When it finds it just tell spybot to ignore.
