Loved it on my old PC. Situation now is new PC and what it might find.Ideas
wanted from knowledgeable people working with Ad-Aware as to what to do
should it find stuff on new PC?

Actually I have never put stuff in quaritine. Like to hear from some one who
has and then took it out of qquaritine and put it back.

Somehow, I don't see the value of quarentine. I guess if you wanted to
send it to "the pros" or something. I just always delete.... Is there
something I'm missing here?

I always quarantine, because every so often there are false positives.
SuperAnti-Spyware had a few some weeks back, and it was easy to restore the
items from quarantine than it was to install the applications over again.

On the odd occasion(s) that Ad-Aware found false positives - quarantine
allows you to restore stuff which are not harmful. 'Rollback'.
