Where does Ad-aware put quarantined files?

Hello listers,

I recently installed the latest version of Ad-aware SE Personal on my Win XP 
Pro system, and I have the JFW scripts for Ad-aware installed. After running 
the program, it informed me that it found several tracking cookies, which it 
quarantined, but when I looked for the quarantine directory in 
programs/lavasoft/ad-aware, I found no such directory.

When I looked at the cookies directory, the tracking cookies were still 
there.

Next, I looked for the logs directory which is supposed to be in the 
ad-aware directory, to see what the log file contained, but there is no log 
directory or log file. What gives?

I made sure to do a Control + M, which selected all the files that Ad-aware 
wanted to quarantine, but those files were still in the cookies directory 
afterward. Am I missing something here?

Alan
