Is this for real?
I also get Firefox's cookies showing up all the time.
 
Ok hold up. If you run one and remove everything it finds, then run another ... of course it's going to find fewer items because the first one took everything out!

EDIT: And sometimes it helps to read the first post.

I've not started using the MS Anti-spyware utility. I might do that on some other computer if one gets infected on my network. Right now my computer is working pretty dang well.
 
Ok, I do not like the program. Adaware does a better, more useful, efficient scan, in my opinion. That could be biased...

Also, I can not get it to stop starting up with the computer. It's getting rather annoying, to say the least...

To get it to stop starting up at boot time go to Options > Settings and deselect the top two check boxes. I haven't double checked this but will in about 5 minutes. Restarting the computer .. now.

edit:
That doesn't work. Now that I've looked into it a bit more I can't find a way to stop it from running. Not that that is a bad thing though (unless you have a crappy computer) because the realtime protection is a good thing. Services.msc doesn't pick it up so you can't kill it from there.
