Every day I run Adaware and Spybot to rid my computer of spyware. I’ve been using them for years and have never had any problems. Well, for about a week now, I’ve noticed that when I go to LJ,IJ, or GJ I’m logged out. At first I thought it was my ISP, but I’m now starting to see a pattern. Before I run the programs I’m already logged into all three. Afterward, I have to log in. Apparently all three have either started using cookies that are known to be spyware, or have been using ones that are now being considered spyware.

Something to think about.
