When I fix the 5 problems (cookies) that are found during the scan it looks like I have fixed them. However when I go to the Recovery section it is empty. Also, if I run another scan I find the same 5 problems. How do I fix the problems?

TNX,
Dave

When I said I ran S&D again I meant right after I fixed the problems from the previous scan. After having done nothing except run the fix and checking the resolved section.

Hello. :)
Spybot does not back up the third party/tracking cookies it removes to the Recovery section.
If the cookies found in the scan aren't removed by Spybot,you can remove them,either individually,or by removing all cookies,depending on what browser you're using.This page might help with that,though some instructions are a little outdated(it would be Tools,Options,Privacy,then click Remove individual cookies for the version of Firefox I'm using,for example.)

After the cookies are removed,you could keep most unwanted cookies from coming back by following the instructions here:
