Answer 2

Don't worry about tracking cookies, they are completely harmless and are not viruses. Trust me, I always get about 5 cookies every time I scan, and some people even get hundreds. Norton and many other programs consider it spyware since it collects browsing info. But, it's really nothing to worry about. Removing them is very easy, just open up your browser and look in the Tools option and just clear the cookies/browsing history. You can read more on cookies in these links.
