Cookies keep coming back

Hi I have run anti spy-ware software but below cookies keep coming back every time. What is the problem and how can I fix it? They are no doubt coming from some site that you visit frequently. The only way to stop them is to stop visiting the site, stop accepting cookies without your approval, or run a program (will cost you) that watches for such items and immediately deletes them. |

Hi I have run anti spy-ware software but below cookies keep coming back every time. What is the problem and how can I fix it? You go to a site that loads the cookie, you later remove the cookie, but then go back to a site that loads the cookie. There is no particular problem. It's the natural way of things. If you really want to avoid the cookies manage it with the internet browser or use a anti-malware program that keeps these from being installed. Cookies are not that big a deal, anyway. Why the extensive crossposting for this issue? One would have been sufficient. -- Rock [MS-MVP User/Shell] |

Are you saying you run the antispyware application, remove the cookies with it, don't do anything else with the computer (no email, no web surfing, nothing) and run the antispyware application again and the cookies are there again? Or are you saying you run the antispyware application, remove the cookies with it, use your computer (email, web surfing, etc) and run the antispyware application again and the cookies are there again? The former would be strange and I would like to know the name of the AntiSpyware Application in question. The latter would make sense - as you likely visited the same web sites and thus, obtained the cookies again. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |

... I have run anti spy-ware software but below cookies keep coming back every time. What is the problem and how can I fix it? A very effective way to block these and other cookies is to use a Hosts file. See either http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm or http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/ |

They are no doubt coming from some site that you visit frequently. The only way to stop them is to stop visiting the site, stop accepting cookies without your approval, or run a program (will cost you) that watches for such items and immediately deletes them. There are other ways. Some free programs (Proxomitron, Privoxy, WebWasher) will prevent these cookies. So will a Hosts file: http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm or http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/ And if I'm not mistaken, the Immunize feature of Spybot Search & Destroy will do this, as will SpywareBlaster (these programs are also free). |
