Friend or foe?
I'm using a programme called "Adware" which has identified the following files as "suspicious". Can anybody tell me what they are?
C
WINDOWS\Cookies\anyuser@doubleclick[1].txt
CWINDOWS\Cookies\anyuser@valueclick[2].txt
I'm worried that they are spyware but also worried about deleting them in case they are an essential part of my operating system
Cheers!
