Deleting Cookies
I'm not certain but probably not. The reason is that many people use online
banking and, therefore, rely upon the cookies being present. There is no option to protect important cookies on an online scanner. If you want to delet cookies you could always use CCleaner www.ccleaner.com This will remove temporary internet files, cookies, history and a host of other files. With CCleaner, and many other third party applications, you do have the option of saving important cookies. The software is also free. -- John Barnett MVP Associate Expert http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org The information in this post is supplied "as is".

Deleting Cookies
Thank you. I was thinking that it probably did not, as after I did the scan
all my cookies were still there. But I was going to do a scan for my friend, and he got all worried that the scan would delete his cookies. Thanks again.
