UNSOLVED
Should I be worried about this?
Just about every time I run SUPERantispyware this comes up a adware tracking cookie
C:\Documents and Settings\Michael\Cookies\michael@atdmt[2].txt
Should I be worried or is it fine?
Also my windows defender is saying this
Name: Unknown
Alert Level: Unknown
Description:
This program has potentially unwanted behavior.
Advice:
Permit this detected item only if you trust the program or the software publisher.
Resources:
file:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

That a problem?

- Mike,I also concur that I would not be concerned about " tracking cookies" [that often persist in returning no matter how many times you remove them].and it doesn't matter which anti-spyware scanner [SuperAntiSpyware, ad-aware, spybot &etc.] finds them...
- "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts"I figured your program was scannin your host file,thats probably what it is.This link will explain hosts file.Tom
