I like to weekly, or so, delete all cookies. This seems fine except that it also removes log-in info for sites such as B of A. I have to re-enter certain items. can I remove the cookies yet save certain ones that I frequently need to reuse?
I keep getting 2 cookies from 3rd party web sites that interfere with my surfing. Other than changing the privacy settings to HIGH. which blocks cookies I want ?
Having deleted all cookies IE 6 "XP" friends computer does not allow her access to certain sites where before she had to log in, using her original password ,Tesco etc.
I use XP Home, SP2. When I try to read the NYTimes online, I am asked for my id and password again and again. I have checked the box indicating windows should remember my info. It happens also with some other sites, but not all.
A virus problems that have been sorted professionally and I now have up to date anti-virus, adware and firewall software. Computer was 'cleaned' it no longer retains info after applications are closed. This particularly relates to web pages where settings for individual sites are not saved after closure.This was the job of 'cookies'. I have my settings to allow cookies to be installed. Is it safer not to have such settings saved
I am running CW Shredder quite regularly and everytime I do run it it detects CWS.Msconfig and removes i. My problem is if this is aproblem I want to know how to get rid of it for good. I also run Ewido, spybot, adaware and windowsonw antivirus. Outside of a few cookies This is the only Problem.
Is there any reason the hosts file should not block sites properly?Certain sites I have put in there aren't being blocked, and this is a problem. Also, does it only block the major site (just the www.badsite.com) and not all subdomains of that? (for example "signup.badsite.com")
Using XP Pro SP2.Windows explorer doesn't show c:documents and settings/jdl/cookies folder when opened from the start->programs menu.However, Start->Run with c:documents and settingsjdlcookies typed in opens the folder. Folder options->View has the "Show hidden folders" option checked.I do not have the windows xp disk since the program was loaded from a corporate server several years ago. I no longer work for that company.Any assistance would be appreciated. Not a big deal since I can access the folder. It may, however, indicate that other problems are afoot. I discovered this when Counterspy Ver. 2 Beta identified the cookie from CNET Networks, Inc., and I couldn't find it in Windows Explorer.
I'm really clueless as to my next, step possibly a re-install of windows, i have a laptop and another PC both networked to my PC using crossover cables. 2 network cards in my computer bridged and ICS shared over the bridge. Both can access the internet with no problems using internet explorer, MSN etc. open web pages using Internet Explorer or Firefox sign into msn has once or twice since this problem started I have scanned with ad-aware and norton 2007 both up to date, found some things and fixed them but still not working.
when out of no where, I received those weird progams on my PC which are those fake Virus scanners and such. i then deleted it from the source, and ran my Nortan scan and my spysweeper, and they found nothing wrong with my pc. Now, the PC will NOT let me go to "important" sites. For example, Bank of America, Paypal, anti-virus sites, Ebay, etc. But will let me go to sites like Myspace or forums. I had my favs on my toolbar as tiles so its easier to access them, i had about 10 of them, and now only 5 remain after the whole thing happened, and the 5 that were removed were "important" sites. Almost every thing on my tool bar was removed, including File, Edit, View, Tools, and such. My search engine is still displayed though.
One of the kids downloaded rapid antivirus and it's screwed everything up. I've managed to get rid of therapid AV, but it looks like I've got some malware/adware of some sort running. Attempts to get to symantec, mcaffee, avg, etc give site not available results in IE 7 - includes techguy.org!!!!, but non-"fixit" sites like google and everything else in the world I can get to. Every few clicks, the url is redirected to an ad site. I've run adaware and trendmicro which found Troj_vg_fcx and removed it, but the problem persists.
I need some links to some sites that will provide information and also fixes for blue screen errors in Win NT/2000/XP. I will be using them on my website, which in turn will be used at my workplace. Thanks for any help that you can offer.
My OS is Wind. XPPro with Internet Explore 6.0 SP2 (Upgraded) I tried to get some additional pages from a web, but instead I had a notice that my computer does not have the necessary cookies
I have always stayed away from the Cookies files. I just downloaded CCleaner and ran analyze and it listed many cookie files to delete. I have hundreds and hundreds of cookies in my system. What is your thinking on deleting the files CCleaner showed
When I try to "select all delete" my cookies I get the following drop down. I can delete them one at a time but I have over fifty. How can I delete all except "index"?
system is set to automatically delete cookies. There's a couple of cookies I would like to keep permanently short of manual selective deletion, is there a way to protect them from deletion ?
When the cookies box pops up and I reject it, then sometimes I can't use the website. Well I went and added one of the websites to my privacy thing and clicked always allow but it still won't allow it. It is very annoying and I want to be able to use certain websites. Why isn't it working
when I go to the "My Weather" page it does not come up.(I get the old"cannot find server" page) I have been told this has to do with my "cookie" settings. How can I change my setting so that I may access this page again?
Am trying to clean out cookies, when done I get an index file that says there are 160kb in file that I cannot access.How do I access these to see what is there? It also says another program is usin this file and that I cannot access the file.
I try logging on to The TGforumz and it says my cookies must be on, so I assum that they are, try loggin in, it says you must restore cookies back to default setting or turn them on.how do I do That
i need your help for a little problem. Since i have install IE 7, i do not have acces to the "delete cookies" button in the "internet options" panel. Also, i cant manually delete cookies.I have try to fix it by activating the "ignore automatic cookies gestion" in the confidentiality panel but to no use.I'm using AVG free and even when i remove it, i still cant have acces to "delete cookies".
when I double click nothing comes up even tho I've done searches previously. I think it might be something to do with Cookies but I don't know enough about them to solve the problem. My OS is Windows XP.
Suddenlly I have to enter my UserID and password on every site I frequent? This happened a week or so ago and it's a pain. Does this have something to do with cookies? If so, how do I change the settings so this doesn't happen?
