    a.as-us.falkag.txt

    Hello all,
    I keep getting this cookie (*a.as-us.falkag.txt) every time I get on the Internet. AdAware finds it, but as soon as I delete it, it comes back. I am running SpyBot, AdAware and Spyware Guard, non of them seems to prevent it.
    Any ideas?

    a.as-us.falkag.net is an ad server, there may be a related process running in memory. Perhaps see if these instructions:

    relate to your version of AdAware?

    Also if you Google search using the term remove falkag you'll find several references to using a Hosts file to block ad servers, they include that server and could be worth a try.

    Platypus, thanks for the reply, but it doesn't seem to suggest a way of preventing this nuisance. AdAware is set as per Lavasoft's directions.

    Have you put "falkag.net" into the blocked cookies list in internet options/privacy/web sites-edit?
