This never seemed to happen in spybot 1, but in spybot 2 when i search for malware it keeps displaying innocent cookies. For example it keeps finding flash player text files that it lists as flash player cookies with the lowest threat level. Why is it doing that?

That might be due to scanning for tracks.

Try opening the Spybot start center,checkmark Use Advanced Mode,click Settings(saying yes to the UAC prompt,if necessary),click the Categories tab,rightclick somewhere within the window where the categories are listed,select Spyware scan only,then click Appy,and then OK. :)
