Howdy. I installed spy sweeper, Ad Aware and Spybot today. Spybot keeps popping in with something trying to make registry changes, and when i open it for info it says source Paul Collins start up list. Any one have any idea what this is? I've ran all three program scans and all three say its clean. I've used spy sweeper for years but was recently told to back it up with ad aware and spy bot. Did I download a virus or are these programs legit? Thanks

You have a virus

BTW, AFAIK, the three programs you installed are adware/spyware detection and removal programs and will do little to help you if you have a virus.
