there are a few, try

1) Microsoft anti spyware (this is top on my list)

2) Adawre from lavasoft, this has a very freindly interface, again remember to update

3) Spy Bot, again this has a nice interface

All these should be installed and ran regularly. The microsoft one (being microsoft intergrates itself more than the other, it will run in your tray as an icon and will flag issues as they occur.)

Also, check out Javacool's Spyware blaster (recently released a new version). This program plugs holes in your system, blocking spyware/adaware from being installed in the first place.
