For a time, I was able to use Spyware Doctor in addition to LiveOneCare until the firewall would not load. Even with the program turned off, the problem coontinued until I completely removed Spyware Doctor and reinstalled OneCare, Are there 3rd party spyware detectors that will run with OneCare/Windows Defender?

If you feel the need to run other software to check for spyware that OneCare may have missed, you would need to find one that does not include a "real time" component. My recommendation is to stick with the free online scanners:
