Use Ad-Aware and Spybot.  Each one catches things the other might miss.

Agamer, the Google toolbar is not spyware, it is just that Ad-Aware and Spybot think it is becuase of the PageRank utility. If you turn this off, neither Ad-Aware or Spybot will think it's spyware.

I personnaly use both, and they have proved very effective ;D.

Ad-Aware or Spyware.
One is enough.

Also Norton Internet security helps with that a lot too.
