Phil,
Paul was having a bit of a problem:
http://forums.vnunet.com/message.jspa?messageID=1067905#1067905
and as it is new there were no solutions last time I looked at his thread.
It could just be something that he is missing.
I got rid of the 2007 version a while ago when I put Spyware doctor with antivirus on one of my machines. it had never found anything except a couple of cookies so I removed it.

Just had a look, basically we both seem to have either the same or similar problem, where the files are not showing in the Quarantine folder.
But they are shown on the log as being detected.
I will need to re-run a couple of scans to see if they are actually being removed, and get back to you later.
(And to Paul)
I think in about 5 years apart from day-to-day items it has have 2 Key-loggers.

Just ran it again but although it did not find anything the "Quarantine" box is now visible.
(although it is greyed out which is only to be expected).

It would seem that the Quarantine option is only available for "Critical" items and does not include "Privacy" items.

If adaware 2008 was a magazine, it would have been called adaware 2009 ;)
