Microsoft AntiSpyware
FormFactor
At the core of forgotten
It seems Microsoft has purchased the rights to Giant's spyware detection and removal tool, and are now giving it away for free as their own.
I ran it on my machines, and am very pleased with the results. It has found more "infected files" than Spybot S&D and Adaware. It was also able to nuke the spyware installed by Bearshare.
Has anyone in the S-M community tried it yet? Any thoughts?

Mixed reviews. No one solution seems to be best, a "cocktail" of scanning solutions is often the best approach.
