Virus checkers look for virus strings inside files, spyware checkers merely look for the incidence of specific files and registry entries from a database.
Would seem that there is space for an integrated solution though, I agree.

It would be so much easier if you would have some sort of combined system.

Would be fairly easy to create a vbScript or even a DOS batch file which kicks them off one after another.

Some of the all-in-one products such as ZoneAlarm give you firewall, anti-virus, anti-spam and anti-spyware in on package.
Although I still run Ad-Aware regularly as well.
