If you go an extended period say two months without showing any sings of virus or spyware can you be reasonably certain your PC is clean or is too soon to tell?
No. You may have a rootkit installed. Your computer becomes a virtual computer, with the real computer being completely owned by the owner of the rootkit. There are no known detection or removal techniques. Even MicroSoft's rootkit detection tool urges you to contact them if you detect a rootkit. Most viruses and spyware is tested against the available anti-virus and anti-spyware systems. You won't be able to detect a new virus with ANY anti-* program.

What is an anti-root software?
I believe you are referring to anti-rootkit software. Firstly, a rootkit is something that allows other threats (eg. viruses, spyware) to hide themselves. (Rootkits are often bundled with keyloggers or trojans.) Therefore, conventional anti-virus products cannot remove them because they are hidden. Anti-rootkit software is designed to remove the rootkit.

Rootkit is a type of malware that hides its presence while it's active on a computer. Rookit hides other malware too. It can be extremely difficult to remove a rootkit from a computer.
