Need decent antispyware advice

I am tired of AdAware and SpyBot failing to catch all spyware. So I am actually considering paying for a decent antispyware. Right now my choice is Webroot Spy Sweeper, but I’d really like to know what the best antispyware solution before I shell out my hard-earned money. What’s the best antispyware solution from your personal experience?

Spy sweeper is a good anti malware program if you want to pay for it.
But dont put your faith in one program i would have other protection or scanners besides that.

Try compare by yourself several spayware scaners
Online System Checker


ActiveX Spyware & Adware Scanning


http://anti-software-spyware.eksuziv.net/

Free online SpywareCkecker
It seems there is software that allows deleting spyware too (but it isn'n free unfortunately)
Personally I use Privecy Expert (with DrWeb as antivirus) on my computer and it's sufficient to me.
But you can check up your computer online and compare.

This is what I do on my own computers...I have Ad-Aware, Spybot and Microsoft AntiSpyware installed to scan my computers for spyware. Then I have SpywareBlaster, SpywareGuard, IE Spyad, a modified HOSTS file and a Block List file installed as spyware blockers.
