Sounds like you are using ad-aware... Ad-aware labels some cookies as spyware..

Tracking Cookies generally don't do any harm.... Can you perhaps before you remove it all, when it says its done, hit save log file then post it here?


Im kinda curious to see what all it finds and stuff...



actully the log file would probably be so long I think itd go past the max file size allowed lol...
