Ccleanr has nothing to do with spyware, it just clears temp files and such. Probably the best out there is Adaware and Spybot search and destroy.

avast! Anti Virus works superb for me and all the machines I build. Come to think of it, I've NEVER had an issue with it, unlike many other apps. Spybot Search & Destroy is spectacular at removing malware / spyware, plus it's free.

On a side note, isn't it great to see superior FREE software?
