Hi. I regularly scan my computer with softwares you've posted in this site, but recently, I always encounter a tracking cookies infection being detected by ad-aware and avg anti-spyware. Everytime these threats are detected, I delete them. However, these are back the next time I scan my pc. Hope you can teach me how to permanently delete these from my system. I am also posting the scan report and hijackthislog file in the hope of determining if, aside from the tracking cookies, my pc is free from virus and malwares. Thank you so much for your help.

Although we don't want to get tracking cookies, as far as threats go, they are not that high on the chart. We all get them from time to time
Read what a tracking cookie is here and how to block many of them:

http://www.mvps.org/...002/cookies.htm

If you have Spybot installed, you can use it's imminize feature to block a lot of them too.

I do understand your concern, but don't get yourself too worked up over them.


* Before you proceed with the following removal directions, you need to disable Spybot's Tea Timer as it will interfere with the changes we are trying to make.
  • Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode.
  • If it is not already set to do this Go to the Mode menu select "Advanced Mode"
  • On the left hand side, Click on Tools
  • Then click on the Resident Icon in the List
  • Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts.
  • Restart your computer.

* Run Hijack This again and put a check by these. Close ALL windows except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"

Restart your computer.
