AntiSpyware missing data miners

[canalien]

MS AntiSpyware says I have no Spyware at the moment. I
can then run AdAware and find, every time, a list of
Tracking Cookies, referred to as Data Miners. I then
delete them. Of course, they're back the next day.

MS antispyware at this time does not check your cookies.

Good reason to keep AdAware functioning. The group it
isolated, data miners, certainly suggests they're spyware.

.

My scan results says that no cookies have been scanned
and no infected cookies found. Why does it not scan my
cookies?

They probably are. I use Ad-Aware and MS AntiSpyware.

Because cookie scanning was removed from this beta build. There will be
another build released at some point, and cookie scanning functionality is
being "considered" for that build.
