I scanned my comp for spyware and found this:

I wanna know if any of them are harmfull. I've noticed that AIM uses WildTangent, thats why I didn't remove allt hose files. The Tracking Cookie was removed, I just made the htm file before that.

Just delete it all - spybot and ad-aware both back stuff up just in case.

Also, if something legitimate had adware attached to it, you can always reinstall that legitimate program. Clean EVERYTHING, then fill in the holes.

I posted a guide to removing spyware (http://stealthbot.net/forums.php?m=posts&p=22490) in response to someone's question on my forums. That might help you as well.

AIM only uses WildTangent for the AIM games, so if you don't play them, then uninstall the WildTangent driver.
