    Hello all.......

    Just wondering if I should delete spyware items I have quarantined from AdAware SE and Giant Antispyware or is there a benefit to keeping them in the quarantine. The quarantined items occasionally come up as spyware when I do the procedural online scans from the spyware removal thread. I'm pretty sure that they can't reintroduce themselves into my system if they are quarantined, but I was wondering if I should just be safe and erase them.

    Advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Also, I have a posted thread in the software forum re: Microsoft Java VM removal and Sun Java installation which no one has responded to (link below). If you could take a quick peek and have an opinion, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

    They are saved mainly in case there is a mistake so you can restore, my advice would be to delete all but the last save.
