A number of very good support websites REQUIRE that you run AdAware SE followed by running Spybot S&D, after which you run Hijack This to get a log of your configuration, which the site will analyze to find a solution for you. AdAware and Spybot apply slightly different criteria to deciding what to fix, so using the two together gives a slight overlap, but is NOT redundant.

Probably only ONE or the other should be set to do real-time monitoring, but running both manually and frequently is highly recommended by the very competent.
