I used to use Ad-aware SE but alot of the new spyware is able to regenerate after you think Ad-aware SE has removed it.

I also used Adaware until I tried Spy Sweeper (Webroot) that removed far many more. The problem I have now is it takes 140 minutes for Spy Sweeper to run, even in stand alone mode with nothing else running. I note it "only" takes 40 minutes when running in safe mode (Win XP).

Any thoughts anyone?

Yup those are currently the top two. And Microsoft has come out with its own an anti-spyware tool as well, which helps a little.
