Wh00t, a new version of Spybot was released, I highly recommend it to anyone. Scan speed has greatly increased as they’re now using a new techinque (not new in concept) using Spybot users scans via the Spybot-S&D Distributed Testing Client. I’m a big fan of of spybot myself, while I’d never really consider it a novices program, it’s easy to use and if you’re willing to read a little can be informative as to what happens to your computer. It’d be nice to see them release a version that takes some of the options (the teatimer) away from the user and uses pre set rules to stop the user from allowing dangerous changes.

A little training and common sense can prevent a lot of computer infections and the spread of malware, spyware and grayware. At the same time, it keeps me busy with repairs

Just noticed today, they seem to be based in Dublin, Awesome.
