A few days ago when I used the yahoo antispyware, it said it found a problem and wanted to run a full scan. I told it "ok", but after more than 90mins I got impatient, stopped the scan and removed everything it had found so far. Now when I run it, it only runs a quick scan and only finds tracking cookies. Does that mean a full scan wouldn't find anything? Is there a way to run the full scan to be thorough?
How do I run a full scan with yahoo anti spy?nortin
YAS will not give you the option to run a full scan unless it encounters a major threat. (Tracking cookies are a very minor threat.)
To be brutally honest, YAS isn't very good. To few detections and what it does find is often a false-positive.
I would suggest the free version of:
SUPERAntiSpyware:

It is excellent.
