Hi,

I have had Microsoft AntiSpyware running for a while now
and today I just ran Ad-Aware SE Personal. That program
found 15 critical objects and 19 negligible objects while
at the same time, Microsoft AntiSpyware says everything
is clear.

Do we need to run programs like Ad-Aware to complement
Microsoft AntiSpyware?

Thanks.
 
Mike,

MSAS BETA1 is not detecting nor removing cookies. The negligible items
are minor and can be ignored. BUT, using more than just MSAS to detect
and remove spyware/malware is always a safer practice.
