Antony, Ran version 5.83, found 11 files, mostly from Gator:mad:
I got rid of that program months ago. Ver. 5.83 couldn't get rid of 2 of the embedded Gator files.

Much to my surprise ran 6.0 & found 108 files:confused: wtf??

all of these were from manufacturer (tracking company) file type (Mining data) .

Thanks for the link!

I had a bunch of those mining data one's too...anyone know what the hell they are?:shrug: :confused:

Time-

Thanks for the update. I used the Ad-Aware 5.0 and it showed only 3, then used the 6.0 and is showed 51. I usually run the scan about twice a week and thought I was keeping ahead of these assholes. It should be illegal to get away with this crap. I don't think the heads of these companies would want ME looking at what they are doing on THEIR personal computer.

Thanks again and I am sending this to everyone I know.

actually I went ahead and downloaded the program...

it did find more spyware, but it doesn't delete them, it just moves them,

I will be using both programs,

thanks

Ran a scan with 6.0 and I found 5 files...

Then I clicked on the "check for updates now" and it had an update, I updated the 6.0 and ran a new scan and it found 53 new files...

thought I would let everyone know, so you can keep your ad-aware updated...
