MS Platforms as good as Spybot Search&Destroy?
Don't know your operating system .
Use these , as well as SpyBot .
MS Antispyware
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx
SpywareBlaster
http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareblaster.html
SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it
from ever being installed.
SpywareGuard
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html
SpywareGuard provides a real-time protection solution against spyware
that is a great addition to SpywareBlaster's protection method. An
anti-virus program scans files before you open them and prevents
execution if a virus is detected - SpywareGuard does the same thing,
but for spyware! And you can easily have an anti-virus program
running alongside SpywareGuard.
Operates primarily using heuristics, and only very occasionally needs
to updates some specific information for the things that they don't
handle.
Just check every now and then for updates.

In Ad-aware click the Gear to go to the Settings area.
The following items should be on a green check, not on a red X.
Under the Scanning button:
* Scan within archives
* Under Memory & Registry, Check EVERYTHING
* In Check Drives & Folders, make sure all of your hard drives
are selected
Under the Advanced button, check ALL under Log detail level
(this makes it easier for visitors to the Lavasoft Support Forums to
see what options you have selected should you require assistance.)
Under the Tweak button...
Some of these may not be an available option, depending on your
version of Ad-aware and your version of Windows. Do not be concerned
if you cannot select a certain item.
In Scanning Engine:
* Unload recognized processes during scanning
* Include info about ignored objects in logfile, if detected in scan
* Include basic Ad-aware settings in logfile
* Include additional Ad-aware settings in logfile
* Include used command line parameters in logfile
In Cleaning Engine:
* XP/2000: Allow unloading explorer to unload shell extensions prior
to deletion
* Let Windows remove files in use at next reboot
* UNCHECK: Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion
Click Proceed to save these settings. When you would like to perform
a "Full Scan," switch the scan mode from SmartScan to Custom.
