I second that. LavaSoft Ad-Aware is a fantastic tool. For those of you not using it, you can get it here for free.... I highly highly recommend it.

When you run a scan, set up the options to run a "Deep Scan" (I think that's what it's called). It will remove possibly harmful objects from your registry as well as any SpyWare .EXE's that may have been surreptitiously installed on your hard drive.
Also, never never never (and I mean never) install WeatherBug. That thing is just a can of worms!
