Download SPYWAREBLASTER(free), keep it updated(the free version has to be manually updated) and a lot of the crap will not even be allowed to install on your machine. Make sure you enable all protection after the manual update. It has stop a lot of malware/cookies from getting to my laptop.
Spend a few minutes exercising your fingers getting the updates and it will ease the pain of spyware/malware/ trojans/auto dialers.
There are a lot of free utilities out there that work just as well as the $50 variety. Sure it take a while to find them, but in the end, well worth the time it saves having to cleanout what can do serious damage.
