Microsoft has recently released their AntiSpyware software, which is basically a product of their acquisition of Giant Software.

I gave it a quick go - and it looks really good. Setup was easy, and it downloaded the latest signature files in no time. I was a little surprised when it finished though - it said I had no Spyware:
