Default PestScan vs SpyBot


Last night I used Zone Lab's "on-line" Pest Scan,
http://www.zonelabs.com/store/conten...jsp?lid=psem37,
and SpyBot (Feb 2) to scan the same PC, Pest Scan found 43 spyware, but
SpyBot was zero. Could someone shed some light on it?

Thanks,




Doug Fox

What were the "43 spyware" ?
If it's just cookies, they're relatively harmless.

They were in the path ...\cookies\. I assume that they were cookies.

Thanks again.
