What's your favorite anti-spyware software?

I used to use the anti-spyware program AdAware and before that, Spybot Search & Destroy. Recently I read some reviews that Spyware Doctor is about the best thing out there. I decided to try it out and install it on my computer.

Well, it managed to clean all of the spyware off of my computer and seems to have plenty of features to manage my computer security (along with my anti-virus). I can't give you a complete review but I would definitely recommend trying it. What's your favorite anti-spyware program and why?

Howdy!

Why not make this a poll and add some options for people to pick.

I don't know 'bout anyone else but I like polls! :p

Posting a Poll

It appears that I cannot add the poll when editing my original post. Also, you can't post a poll in a reply, so my only option would be to post a new thread. Next time I post a question like this, I'll make a poll - I didn't even notice that option before.

Kenwilly, I use Spybot Search and Destory. On my computer, Ad-Aware just ends up deleting cookies that I wanted anyway. Hahaha. I've never heard of Spyware Doctor. Thanks for the heads up, I'll try it!

Some years ago I started using Ad Aware. After some time I discovered Spybot Search and Destroy and it's the only one I am using right now. I also recommend it to all my friends in need of something like this.
