AD Aware is an effective anti spyware with Good cleaner for cookies, registry key, I use it , Spybot should do the same thing .. anywat they are very good but Adaware is good than spybot, but spybot unearth stuff that adaware did not unearth.

It depends on what version of Ad-aware you speak. The free version does not provide protection, it can simply be cleaned. If you want protection, you need a more advanced version and pay.

Spybot and Ad Aware are anti spyware software, so no difference, but they complement each other well because the two programs do not detect the same spyware, then can be install on same machine
