XoftSpy by Pareto Logic finds and removes spyware, adware, worms, Trojan horses, W32/spybots, malware, hacker tools, spy programs, browser hijackers, key loggers, PC parasites, and trackware. (Whew!) The interface is basic (for all basic functions) and advanced features a bit harder to find and use (though not overly so). XoftSpy used to have an annual fee, but now it appears their $39.95 price is one-time fee for a lifetime membership. Nice improvement.

Popularity / Customer Satisfaction
Consistently reported to be in user's and reviewer's top 3 (usu. in position 2 or 3, trading off with PC Orion; and with NoAdware consistently in 1st place - both also reviewed on our site).
Some users complain, though, that it tends to find less invasive programs than other similar products.

Ease of Use
Clean interface with only a few basic buttons
Some may find it too clean, with limited functionality from the main window
Advanced features are available but harder to find and use, particularly for novices
Some users complain the software was able to identify certain spyware that it's was not able to remove (yikes!)
Also not as savvy with prescheduled/automated scans
Updates not automatically downloaded nor are notifications sent out - so users must manually check for and download any updates to the software themselves
