Yes, but only if you have installed VirusScan 8.5.0i Plus, which includes McAfee’s new AntiSpyware program. Unlike Ad-Aware or Spybot, the AntiSpyware program runs continuously in the background, automatically detects and removes any spyware it finds, and keeps its spyware definitions up-to-date all on its own.
