    Couldn't get a screenshot, but the record at our store was just set 2 weeks ago. 1667 in one scan. Ad-aware choked trying to get them all, it took manual removal in Safe mode to get a lot of it out.

    anyone else had a problem with Ad-Aware crapping out when it finds lots of stuff on win9x? cause I had one that had 1300+ on it today and if wouldn't let me clean it up it kept freezing on me. So I had to do it in "chunks", let it detect 200 or so then abort, clean those, then start all over again. I've had it happen a few times, generally on older machines (P2 and lower P3s)

    I'll post back with a screen shot when the scan finishes.
    Hey Pinhead, as you haven't posted back I assume it's still scanning 10 days later. You MUST have the record by now!

    Look though at how much 'stuff' there is installed ... 119,046 objects scanned thats like twice mine (well more than & I have what you might call a congested system ... most users never take anything off I suppose )

    Man I thought i had the record, 1007........
    Ah well.. It seems when it's that much of a number it's almost always cookies doing it.
    I mean, is there even 1000+ spy-ware programs anyways?
    And even if there were, i mean there's no way they could all be running at the same time!

    sorry about the poor QL. Hopefully when it gets done removing everything I can get you all a better screen shoot with the log.

    And yes that 21509 objects found. And No its not my system its a customers

    Edited looked at the logs and most of those objects is from the Netsky.c virus. guess it was to many to be true

    When you give back their system they will call and complain, that their Kitty Cat mouse pointers, and smileys are gone.
