Hi all.
Steve Gibson, author of Optout also recommends are more comprehensive app
called 'Ad-Aware'.
http://www.lava-soft.de (I'm pretty sure that's the URL). A very
comprehensive tool for removing tracking type dlls, cookies and other
nasties. It's also free.

  Best bet is to visit www.grc.com and find an app called OptOut.  It will
scan your drives for those nasty spyware dll's, and prompt you for their
removal.

  I know that CuteFTP has advert.dll (not sure if the later versions have
this).
