I use a couple of pretty decent ones:

Spybot S&D

And Ad-aware....

http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

Both are free and are pretty good at snagging spyware up. Look them over and see if they are right for you. I'm sure there are others out there, too.

I dont use Ad-aware any more but it was pretty good back in the day.

Thanks, I've had spybot for a while but it stoped working for some reason. Got Ad-aware last night and ran a few scans. Lets see if it works

I like freeware such as Adware and there are a bounch of other freeware products out there. Norton is soooooo.... slow that you wonder what you paid for so go with one of the free ware products out there.
