Re: Use at least two?

Read the article. The author finds that by combining Giant (now MS anti-spyware) with Webroot Spy Sweeper created the best results, and even that only nabbed 70%.
I ran AdAware last night after probably a month of not using it. Since I switched to Firefox I only raise flags on cookies. No installed apps, period.
Same here since I just about ALWAYS use Opera, at least since version 5!!

Heck, even Slimbrowser and Kmeleon, which I've been playing with lately, have settings you can adjust that will prevent most spyware.

I do have and use Webroot Spysweeper, Adaware and Spybot along with Spywareblaster for IE, when I do use it, but for the life of me, I can't even remember the last time any of these programs found something other than cookies or MRU's.
