Didn't pick stuff up

It didn't pick up so called "Tracking Cookies" from:

207.net
servedby.advertising.com
serving-sys.com
mediaplex.com
centrport.net
atdmt.com
servedby.netshelter.net
advertising.com
z1adserver.com
fastclick.net
doubleclick.net
ads.pointroll.com
bluestreak.com
imrworldwide.com/cgi-bin
247realmedia.com
tribalfusion.com


All of these were picked up by Ad-Aware SE v.1.05 with up
to date definitions.

It also didn't pick up these things detected by Spybot-
S&D:

Webtrends live cookies
Travelocity cookies

Is the final release slated to do so? If not, I'm
probably not going to use it....

The only statement that I've seen is along these lines:

1) there will be a further beta release
2) cookie-related functionality is under consideration for that release
So--presumably we'll know before final release.

I have a similar problem. When I run AdAware 6.0 and
Spybot after running MS beta, they pickup DSO Exploit and
Tracking Company every time.

DSO Exploit findings by Spybot Search & destroy are not real--they could be
called either a false positive or a bug--there's nothing to fix if you are
fully patched on the OS's covered by this product beta. This beta also does
not remove or scan for cookies, which represent your second area of
difference.

Hi Karthik,
In the Beta1 version, the program doesn't go into the cookie jar, nor does
it chase data miner objects.
