The Spysweeper is keeping the junk out before it can be placed on your
system.
SpyBot is one of the best scanners out there. Adaware has high ratings
according to Cnet. Those two programs sometimes conflict on SpyBots
backup/restore. SuperAnti Spyware is another top rated scanner. Try it and
always update before your run.
*Never run more than one on-access scanner of same type like AV or AntiSpy
in system tray at the same time and close all running programs that are not
necessary in order to get the full benefit. No AV or AS program can be 100%.
Current datfile updates; SpySweeper does this automatically online and
behind the scene. The others you must update manually.
