If you know of how i can do this please help me......by the way i have windows xp if that means anything.

Answer 1

In Internet Explorer

- Go to Tools

- Click Internet Options

- Click The Privacy Tab

- Click Advanced

- Set it to accept First Party Cookie and Block Third Party Cookies

*note if the options are grayed out check the box that says override automatic cookie handling and make your changes.

Also Cookies are not dangerous..if you set it to block third party cookies you will see less tracking cookies

Answer 2

Go tools then setting automatic all the scanner you computer

Answer 3

I had the exact same thing happen to me yesterday, I had the vault full of dangerous cookies,I deleted them one by one, I did not really know if I was supposed to delete them, since I could not heal them, but no harm was done, I just wanted to free the vault!
