Spyware - General

Shortly after downloading and installing Spyware Detector, I see that my cookies folder now does not show up when doing a search (with system/hidden files displayed)

Does SD hide the folder to prevent users from getting around it's 'register to fix' requirement by deleting the detected cookies etc. themselves directly from the cookies folder?

On the bright side, INDEX.DAT SUITE is a great program.  Shows what's hiding in those index.dat files: EVERY PAGE YOU EVER VISITED. 

Of course I'm sure MS would never want to use that information - they just collect it on you HD for fun.

I won't even get started on IE7.  POS.  I just switched to Firefox.
