Hi Tom
I could be wrong here do I do not believe that the immunization portion of Spybot works for Firefox but you should still use both. You could also add SpywareBlaster which is NOT a scanner but currently blocks 3279 bad products. It is also free and DOES work with Firefox. You can get it here.

Much appreciated,

I would recommend to still use Spybot also. They work together well, as well as with Ad-Aware SE.
