    I run current versions of AdAware and Spybot every couple days, but consistently get tracking cookies form Zedo, Mediaplex, Doubleclick and more. I googled 'removing Zedo' and followed the instructions. The core.sys and core.cache.dsk files weren't there to remove. It was suggested by the website to contact MajorGeeks.

    Is there anyway to permanently remove these Malware items?

    Thx...SJ:confused

    Cookies are not problems! You will always have cookies unless you never open up a browser to do any surfing. Don't worry about cookies. See what I wrote in step 11 of the below link:

    For you other issue with core.cache.dsk which is malware, please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions. If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going. Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.
