    Also try

    SpyBot Search & Destroy. It can also kill those nasty programs that run in the background and send your personal info to their hosts. Best of all, it's free too (though donations are requested).

    Download it here:

    C:Program FilesLavasoftAd-aware 6Ad-aware.exe go to this site it's free, its a program that searchs all your file(everything) for hidden cookies and crap.Works really well but the first time you use it it will take about 10-15 minutes to scan then just hit select all and it will delect those files.Good luck Dave
