Is C Cleaner an anti spyware program, too? I'm surprised we never hear it 
mentioned on the mailing lists. Where do you find it? Can anyone else attest 
to its quality?

Thanks.

Also, I may be thick, but what is the meaning of the scenario where you 
delete cookies for some strategic reason I'm not familiar with, and then run 
an anti spyware program? What do those two things have to do with one 
another? Why would you expect an anti spyware program to turn up spyware 
once you've deleted some cookies from your cookies folder? I hope my 
question is clear.

Thank you very much.

actually this is interesting. i use c cleaner and every time i run it i'll
run adaware and adaware never finds anything after c cleaner. i think i'm
just going to dump adaware. c cleaner works great right out of the box. you
don't need scripts for it and it does multiple functions.just my 2 cents
worth.
