246841 2004-06-22 13:13:00 You should delete everything that the program identifies.

246843 2004-06-23 04:46:00 I've been using AddAware every week for years. I have always deleted everything it comes up with and never had a problem. Vince (406)
246844 2004-06-23 04:58:00 I'm the same as Vince. It's what AdAware doesn't catch that you need worry about. I've never had a false positive.

Look up spyware in the FAQs on this page, heaps of inforamtion. (slow to load).

246845 2004-06-23 05:36:00 Cheers mark i'll go have a look at that page.. Sajuuk Khar (5772)
246846 2004-06-23 06:24:00 Hi Sajook
Suggest do what Mark says - but as he observes the FAQ's are slow to load - it is much, much quicker to go through search to get to the FAQ. Tests have clearly shown that !!
