HOW TO RESTORE A REMOVED ADWARE COOKIE?
« on: May 21st, 2005, 2:55am »		 Quote Quote  Modify Modify
The most frequent site I use is info.com
 
Apparently it requires clickit.gonet to function.
 
This adware was removed by one of my malware removal programs (and I can't determine which one).
 
How does one restore this adware tracking cookie? [I've twice Emailed info.com on this but gotten no reply.]

I'm doubtful that you can restore it.  However, probably just going to the website will cause the item to be loaded back onto your system.  
 
I suspect that your spyware removal program is removing it every time you go to the website.  You will need to find which program is doing it and see if there is a way to "allow" the item to run without being removed automatically.  
 
Keep in mind that once you override the clickit.gonet in your spyware removal program, it will apply to all websites.  Although info.com may not be maliciously using clickit.gonet, some other websites are.   
 
Are you using Spy Sweeper?  If so, examine the HOSTS shield.
