AD-Watch von AD-Aware, dieses Programm unterdrückt den Zugriff von Tracking Cookies oder Pop ups. Kann bei manchen Seiten & Programmen zum Problem beim Aufruf führen. Wenn Probleme auftreten lässt es sich in der Taskleiste stoppen.

Called "Ad-Watch" it monitors your computer's registry and ensures that no harmful data is written to it. If a change is detected you will be prompted to either "Accept" the change or "Block" it. Wonderful program for stopping browser hi-jack attempts. It is a component of Lavasoft's Ad-Aware 6 anti-spyware package.
