Rolando,
We saw the need for anti-spyware solutions and Michele Jordan has done some 
outstanding research identifying every product and categoring them as follows:
Spyware Prevention (29 products)
http://www.securitywizardry.com/as_prevention.htm
Spyware Removal (24 Products)
http://www.securitywizardry.com/as_removal.htm
There are also a few spyware links here

Hello Security world,

I’m interested in professional opinion on best practices to reduce
spyware/Malware. Currently, we have only the protection of personal firewalls
and IDS which picks up spyware but does not remove it. I argue that the focus
should be on reducing the risk of high level threat spyware instead of on
preventing all of it 100% but it is difficult to educate CIO and Directors
whom do not have much of an idea or security (in general). If anyone can
share information on steps you may have taken towards this issue
successfully, I would be thankful. It’s good to have different options on
the table. ☺
