I actually tried it a few months ago. It found one spyware, related to
Creative play center. That's about right since i have that installed but
disenabled from startup, however, that was a pretty harmless hit, since
it was not connecting to the internet anyway being disenabled. And even
if it was enabled, i dont think it qualifies as spyware.

You might want to post the 9 spyware that spy sweeper found for
discussion here or at spybot forums. I'm guessing most of the 9 found
will be pretty harmless stuff.
