-------------------------------------------------------------

Just my feelings but further to recent discussions regarding the termination date of Ad-Aware SE which is unknown at this time it may be prudent to start looking for an alternative spyware application ie. SUPERAntiSpyware which is a an alternative freeware program. Personally I ain't used Ad-Aware since the 2007 version was introduced because I found it a waste of space to have a cookie handling program installed.

I'm keeping AAW SE until they stop updating it. I tried AAW 2007, but had a lot of trouble with it so reverted back to SE.
SUPERAntiSpyware is an excellent program, as is the support on their forums.
