Mostly, its just cookies that get automatically downloaded, and just as grentz said, S&D blocks those (mostly, so its still a good idea to scan for them every once in a while)

I don't know what OS or browser you're using, but I've never seen that.

I use:
1. Spy Sweeper
2. Spybot 1.3
3. AdAware 6
Still like SpySweeper the best, but I think Spybot leaped it with 1.3!! :)
