atdmt

[Dave]

atdmt is very easy to get rid of. (If you know how). No need to mess with
your registry! This Microsoft marketing cookie (by atlassolutions) has an opt
out option installed on your computer but the easiest and quickest way is to
search "atdmt opt out" on Google. You will find the atdmt site at the top
of the results. Click on that and you will get the removal tool. Please note
you must not block atdmt.com in your sites list in internet options/ privacy
(if it is blocked you must allow it or the tool will not work). What happens
next is atdmt will replace the offending cookie with another which does not
function. It is as easy as that. I had 120 atdmt threats detected by AVG and
it drove me mad before I discovered this simple solution. - Dave
ps since removing atdmt I have been plagued by serving-sys tracking cookie I
am wondering if this is related in some way? A funny thing with the atdmt
cookie was I never got any other warnings on AVG except atdmt during the 2
weeks I had it.

Hi dave, I think I have seen your solution to this on a few other forums and
as yet I have not tried it.
What does the serving-sys tracking cookie look like and what is flagging it?

UPDATE: The ATDMT opt out cookie is constantly being detected on my
computer by AVG (8.5 free edition). AVG does not appear to know the
difference between the opt out cookie and the original cookie!! AVG flags
the opt out cookie as dangerous too and sometimes automatically deletes it
which lets a flood of atdmt cookies in again! Can anyone help with this
secondary problem?
I wonder if the originators (Microsoft?) are aware of this too? No doubt
they would blame the anti virus programme.
I have wasted weeks on this problem and it is driving me nuts.

ps Tugga: the serving-sys cookie is only flagged by AVG when the atdmt
cookie is fully removed. When I tried 'solutions' to atdmt (which only ever
worked for a day or so) this serving-sys cookie was detected quite a few
times - strange.
