Doesn't find anything

Have used Spybot-S&D for years and it always found some threats. Recently downloaded version 1.5.2 and have updated and run it several times, however it never finds anything. This seems very odd. Am I missing something? I don't understand. Comments please. Thanks
 
probably...

before you probably had spybot search and find all threats, meaning tracking cookies, other very mild threats, etc. When you go to scan, have spybot do "all checks". If you need help on how to do that, let me know. You will then be able to clear tracking cookies, and the like. I am pretty sure that is what is going on. Several other users have stared this before and this was the case.
 
129260, are you saying tracking cookies should be of our concern? Or are you saying that Spybot-SD is "suppose" to find the cookies in our browsers? We can clean them manually.
 
spybot is not by default....

selected to find tracking cookies. But some people when they had spybot installed had it perform all checks, which then almost every time spybot scanned, it would find stuff. I do not worry about tracking cookies, as i have firefox clear all cookies when i close my browser. so, its up to you.
 
Mystery solved
