Ad-Aware 2008

I have been running Ad-Aware 2007 for some time now and it hardly ever
found anything. I un-installed it and installed Ad-Aware 2008,
updated the definitions and ran it and it didn't find anything except
a couple of MRU's.

I imediately updated the definitions and ran SUPERAntiSpyware (fee)
and it found 48 tracking cookies.

Interesting, huh?

No, not really. Cookies are the least of your worries.

Boring. You have control of cookies through your browser. If you can't
be arsed to sort it now, you'll have another 50 next time you run a
