I use more than one because they all clean up different things, but my favorite is AdAware and they have a free version, too.  AdAware picks up more than Spybot S&D.  I don't know about Windows Defender.

Use AdAware and spy-bot together.

Also if you come accross something get "Hijack this"

Helped a few people with it before.

I wouldn't use anything Windows-related in terms of computer security.

Spybot outweighs Windows entirely. It is way more simple than windows. Even someone with an IQ at 80 could work it as if they were smart with Technology advancing. Besides it is free and once it comes to spending your money and good Virus software, that truely makes a huge difference tremendously.

I wonder why Microsoft has started to be crappy with everything they make.Windows Defenfer is too crappy, doesn't detect much and prove much protection.
GO FOR Spybots but that isn't the ultimate solution either.
