is there more then 1 version of 143
it looks like 143.002 3 4 5 6
i go to update but it literally downloads defs in 1 second then says up to date
is this because its still 143?

Hi cootmaster,

This is because Ad-Aware now offers Incremental Updates.

TY
i thought my AAW was broken

Your welcome

one last question my mom got new computer
and i noticed this w mine
it says 0 infections on mine as well as hers i guess i not at her house
but the infection counter says 0 until end and it said 2 privacy objects
i thought it gave a running total at beginning
usually its in 100s w cookies and stuff

What are the 2 privacy objects that it detected?

Can you post a screen shot

ok here
0 found UNTIL its over
how can it be 0 untill it ends

MRUs are "most recently used" objects, such as recently opened documents and files. I suggest you turn MRU scanning off.

Open Ad-Aware --> Go to Settings --> Under the Scanning Tab, de select (red X) "Scan for MRUs" --> Then click Save

Click to view attachment

ok why it show 0
it used show cookies
and count 100s objects
did something change
i never saw this before
did a setting change w these updates

What shows 0?



did you turn off MRU scanning?

yup
um just wondering u never got this before
ok now threes 0 infections
what happened what happened all millions cookies i used to show are hone is this bc of mini updates
still bit confused

oops browser posted twice

Did Ad-aware 2008 always detect cookies?
It should only find tracking cookies. If it does, and you remove them, they are gone.
But if you are talking about just plain cookies, then the MRU Setting would have changes that.
Cookies are not bad, only tracking cookies.

i think it was tracking cookies w the cookie icons
and 2007 and 8 ALWAYS counted to about 150 infections
then asked to be removed manually
except for occasional infection
now w this mini upgrade it counts 0

It means that there are no tracking cookies on your system which is a good thing.

how odd ok weird it used be 100s everyday
