Your Program sucks, Adware and Spybot finds entries, when
run against the same files your program finds no problems,
whats the deal?
 
Your Program sucks,

Yeah? Really? I think it's rather commonly known problem - PEBCAK. In this
situation, it exist because one does not know what he is talking about..

Instead of such complains you could just search few minutes across the posts
here on the newsgroups. Then you would know, that Ad-Aware and Spybot search
for cookies and dataminers that MSAS does not look for (at least in it's
Beta 1 state).

But I know, reading sucks...

Hi

This program rocks but have some challengies to overcome.

For example check your log files from Adaware, just press on the
"golden lock"
and choose a scan, you will probably only find tracking
cookies/dataminers.

In Beta 1 MSAS does not look for tracking cookies or dataminers

It is just to keep both programs, MSAS also gives you strong real time
protection.

Lavasoft explains it in this way, it is up to you to deside if
you believe tracking cookies are good or bad. There is no answer to
that.
The problem is that also the bad guys are using them...............
