I hate spybot as well.
Adaware isn't bad but not the best (IMO).
Spysweeper and giant\microsoft antispyware are great.![]()

In my opinion Spy Sweeper is better because it catches more baddys and some Trojans even!. However I never takes chances and run all 3 of them to be sure I get rid of everything.
Thats strange that your experience with SP2's built in Pop Up Blocker is so poor. In my experience and I have tried both SP2 and Google Toolbar is that they are about the same when it comes to Pop Up Blocking so to me it does not mather which one I use, for instance none of them takes all pop ups on this site:
http://www.goldesel.to (a german ED2K verified site).
For me the built in blocker in IE in SP2 blocks about 80-90% of pop ups and have made my surfing experience much easier when using IE. In fact I am starting to get spoiled now and dont stand Pop Ups at all anymore
Regarding OE yes it was possible in earlier versions but this is after all a guide for dummies and rather then fiddling with preferences it is best to just upgrade to SP2 and get it done and over with and as a result get all security updates at once!!.

SpyBot Seacrh & Destroy is made to detect the most harmfull ones the so called Bots. It is not supposed to detect everything you should combine it with Ad-Aware Personal Se that detects tracking cookies and data miners!.
As a third option use SpySweeper from webroot for maximum efficency in cleaning up!!.

@Skizo imho you don't have SSD configured correctly. SSD is still King. But imo M$/Giant is pretty good also. Then AAW. spysweeper & pestpatrol are junk imo.
