Zonealarm internet security suite is a good package offering a/v, spyware removal and a firewall.
It's neither free nor expensive.

That's because, confusingly, there are 2 programs called Spybot.
The one you want is Spybot Search and Destroy. http://www.safer-networking.org/en/spybotsd/index.html

Hi, Everyone
Thanks for the advice, I have downloaded "Spyware Search and Destroy" - "Adware 2007" and "PC Tools Spyware Doctor"
PC Tools downloaded fine but wouldn't remove any infections unless i purchased it, however what was very interesting was that when I went to remove it, it offered me a free cut down version which appears to work fine. Just thought I would mention it as when I ran the orginal downloaded copy it was the only program to find a number of problems all of the others said there was no problems.
Hope that helps

Enodreven,
I do not know of ANY programs that offer a free service which DOESN'T highlight things that cannot be fixed unless you purchase the full version.
There is rarely, if ever, a real problem.

Hi, Papa Smurf
All of my Virus/spware type programs are free and they all fix the problems they find, including NOW the PC Tools spyware doctor (Starter edition which is free)
Hope that helps
