Is there any SPYWARE on my computer?????????????

Hello from 'rainy' Belgium !
I was wondering if in Windows XP or through DELL, there is a way to verify my computer in order to see if 'spyware' has been installed by a member of my family. I find lots of download sites, such as 'spy cop' etc..., but they are paying. I have, however, been told, that Microsoft f.e. can 'verify' my computer to check if it has any spyware installed on it.
Thanks for letting me know
Regards,
Iris

    I think he is refering to a different kind of 'spy-ware'. More like computer use tracking/recording software.
