Spybot vs Ad-AwareJon,
Thanks for submitting the log file.
The entries in it appear to all be add cookies.
This is somewhat comforting as there are no "programs" listed that Spybot
missed. I can imagine that it would be quite a task for every company to
keep up with every cookie deemed addware. It may be a matter of lag time
between updates too. I would suspect that if you did it in opposite order
(AdAware then Spybot) you would probably have some cookies that AdAware
missed. I guess the moral of the story is if you want things really clean
run multiple cleaners :o)
Thanks again!
John B.

Subject: [dba-Tech] Spybot vs Ad-Aware
I can't remember who asked me what was left over after a Spybot cleanup
that Ad-Aware picked up... here's my log file. I downloaded the latest
updates for both last night, and ran Spybot, then Ad-Aware. This is
Ad-Aware's log file for the scan.
If there is anything of a nefarious nature in there, please bear in mind
that it's a shared pc ;-)
