You should always run Spybot back-to-back with Ad-Aware:

Also, make sure of two things:
Make sure both Spyboy and Ad-Aware are using the most current files (use the
"look for updates" button)
Always run scans in safe mode. This means you'll have to run each spybot
program once to make sure they're updated, then reboot into safe mode before
scanning.
Good luck with this ever-worsening spyware problem.
