In XP, the Documents And Settings folder holds all user information,
including configuration settings, favorites, and cookies. The Documents And
Settings\Username\Cookies folder is where XP stashes cookies. How do you
control the number of cookies you allow on your system? Click Start >
Control Panel > Network And Internet Connections > Internet Options. Click
the Privacy tab, then use the slider bar to modify your cookie settings. For
instance, you can block cookies from sites that use personal identification
without your consent. To increase your security, try out the other privacy
settings in this dialog. The lowest level is Accept All Cookies while the
highest is Block All Cookies, with low, medium, medium-high, and high
settings in between. (An explanation of each appears as you move between
settings.) Keep in mind that rejecting cookies may limit your actions on
some Web sites, and some sites use cookies to track how many times you see a
popup, for example, on this website, if you blocked cookies, you would see a
popup on every page.
