Spybot picking up Ad/Tracker cookies

When I use the forum spybot is picking up some cookies that it normally blocks. But by blocking it occasionally stops the rest of the page from loading.

Are one of the advertisers doing something they shouldn't or is this something that you've done Stuart?

I've put in a request with the people serving the ads and switched back to Google in the meantime.

Yup - it's being fine since you've done that.
