I use a combination of Onyx and Clean my Mac. Clean my Mac is paid for but does a good automatic job. There are lots of features but all I do is launch the app, go to the Actions menu, then press scan. Repeat the process of going to the actions menu and press clean. Wait a few seconds, enter your password when prompted, and wait for the finish tone and that is it. You can n ow close the app. Onyx does some different things like rebuild launch databases.
I am not sure that either app deals with ad ware though. You are probably looking at a proper security application like Macscan for that.
