cookies aren't spyware, but I don't think Ad-Aware scans for cookies in Mozilla's cookies file yet but I could be wrong. You can adjust how it handles cookies though, like asking before accepting one or limiting their lifespan.

Spybot's latest beta build now checks Firefox cookies.

Edit: Just realized you posted in the thread about this. Sorry 'bout that.
