We've generally had good success with Spybot Search and Destroy. Last I knew it is supported by donations, so the cost is up to you. I have used it in conjunction with the corporate products from Symantec, and they seem to add up to a pretty good solution.
That said, the users we support are pretty low key with their online habits, so I haven't run into much fallout due to P2P usage or similar 'edgy' practices...
I recommend using a combination of different software. It has been my experience that one always misses something. Luckily, most spyware removers have a free version that work very well.
A few that I recommend are:
