Oh Well, here are the results of the South East London Jury.
Running Adaware 5.83 on my C: drive yielded
9 suspect cookies.
Running Adaware 6 on the same drive subsequently yielded
1 suspect dialer object in my registry a further 67 dodgy cookies.
About bloody time it was released. Mayhap that will stop those wretched EBay popups
:-)

I believe there is a way of barring cookies from those websites being written to your hard drive, but i`ll be buggered if I can remember what it is...

If you`re using IE6, go to Tools/Internet Oprions/Privacy/Advanced and set both of the options there to "prompt" (so a little box comes up where you can block or allow the cookie) but tick "always allow session IDs" so that you don`t have to log in to your favourite websites each time you visit :-)
