I'm using spybot, spyware blaster, and a sygate firewall - all free.
I'm not sure what a tracer is. I found another free program called Ad-Aware from lavasoft that may cover your problem. It's a free download at: http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10045910.html?part=69274&subj=dlpage&tag=button
You could also go to a reputable site like cnet and have your computer scanned for free.
Just be careful what you download. Some spyware sites actually put spyware on the pc and later offer to remove it for a fee.
I've never had any trouble with spybot. I don't have Ad-Aware yet but it seems to get high marks and many use this in addition to spybot.
