I also use the google popup blocker. You can get that from [url "http://www.google.com"]www.google.com[/url] and going to the "more" selections and it is called the google toolbar.
Spybot has a couple items to get with it, one is a registry cleanup and the other is a snapin called teatimer. teatimer is real time monitoring snap in, this will let you know when a specific web page is trying to modify any setting, ie registry, active-x, home page, installing crap.
Good luck to you. Please note, some spyware is a sob to get rid of, run spybot "at startup" for those hard to reach spots.
