don't know

[fmartino]

I've been using microsoft antispy for about two or three
weeks and it seems to be working but it never seems to
find anything. Spybot used to find spyware all the
time..I don't get it.. any ideas???

Microsoft Antispyware in this build does not detect cookies. This accounts
for much of what some other apps find as problems.

I thought cookies are the main cause of spyware???

Cookies account for most of what many cleaner apps are calling spyware, but
they aren't the main issue--the main issue is executable code on your system
which you cannot remove and which is doing things you have not assented to.
