Subject: Ad-aware works great!

I use a program entitled "Ad-aware" to clean critical tracking cookies out of my computer. I did a little experiment yesterday.

I cleaned out my machine and then visited pages at Suite101.com to see what kind of changes had been made.

Then I did another scan with Ad-aware and found that I had received 199 critical tracking cookies, in just a short while, from advertisements on this site.
