In spybot if you turn on the advance setting you can add entries to you host file that spybot knows about. this effectively blocks access to those web sites that are known to cause problems. BHODemon is good for detecting incoming browser help objects.

I've had no problems except that I have found that neither Ad-Aware nor SpyBot do the job on their own. I find that I need both to be sure of a successful clean up.  Be sure that you keep each updated!
 
It's still putting the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff. I'd appreciate a suggestion as to a good filter to act as a fence.
 
Cheers

Haven't experienced that (unless you mean that it's fairly processor hungry while it's running?), but I've found SpyBot Search&Destroy a better spyware tool personally, and generally seems as well regarded as Ad-aware.

I have seen it mentioned here several times so...
I tried installing Ad-Aware at home and everything ground to a halt.
 
Has anyone else had this ...
