if you type online spyware scanner into google you get quite a few, I have never used any of them so I can't comment on their effectiveness

I periodically run the Kaspersky online virus scanner:

Have a look at this - it is an on-line scanner for malware etc.

try prevx1 - very good at cleaning the nasties the others seem to struggle with - free for a month after the first time it does a clean up for you.
