Spyware Removal from slave disk

[RobH]

I have a friends laptop that has some nasty spyware on it. I took the disk and put it in a USB caddy so I can scan it from a clean environment, there is no hope trying to remove it if it can freely execute.

I am currently scanning it with AVG but I can't find a spyware removal tool that will allow me to specify a drive to scan, they all want to scan the host system. Does anyone know of a tool that will allow me to do this (adaware Free doesn't allow this nor does Spybot).

Thanks, I'll give them both a try, I might be able to get rid of it. My opinion though is that once your system gets infected with spyware it's game over.
