Some antispyware software detects all the safe cookies on your computer so it appears they find more spyware.
Or they’ll use old technology with false positives and claim you have spyware when you don’t.
Sometimes they’ll even count each file from a spyware program separately so it looks like they detect more. Because one spyware can have hundreds of separate files.
The worst of all are programs like Antivermins, Smitfraud, Winfixer and others that claim to be antispyware when in fact they hijack your computer and demand a ransom to be removed!
