Spybot Search & Destroy......doesn't tell you to edit the subject
searches...ie....cookies...adware....hijacks....etc. You have to fine tune
the program for searches and the first time you will see some spyware is
checked to ignore....this is why you should verify every setting before
running the first time. You'll save yourself the horror of opening up a door
to spyware. I'm troubled the program downloads preset to invite trouble,
however, a setting verification will supress this problem.
