Given these limitations, readers should not regard the test results reported here as any kind of "definitive" guide to anti-spyware scanners, nor should readers use these test results as the sole basis for purchasing decisions.

But still look here http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm and here http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_...tm#trustworthy and your see there are not many good scanners out there at all.
Your also get some what the same info from other sites.

Just watch out because there is lots of bad anti-spyware scanners out there and also those that install more of there own spyware.
