Why should cookies be deleted?
336005
Because some websites have "cookie-grabbers". They have developed a system in which they can obtain they viewers' cookies while they are browsing that site. With that gained, they can access your passwords for almost every account u have made online. There is no harm in deleting cookies, and I suggest you delete them often.

If you are using Windows I can help. Go to your control panel and open up internet options. Then click on the privacy tab. From here you can slide the privacy bar up and down to the relevant setting you would like. Read the description of which cookies are allowed under each setting in order to decide. \n\nAlternatively you can delete your existing cookies by opening internet explorer (7.0) and clicking on Tools->Delete Browsing History. There is a button there for deleting cookies.

The main purpose of cookies is to identify users and possibly prepare customized Web pages for them. When you enter a Web site using cookies, you may be asked to fill out a form providing such information as your name and interests. This information is packaged into a cookie and sent to your Web browser which stores it for later use. The next time you go to the same Web site, your browser will send the cookie to the Web server. The server can use this information to present you with custom Web pages. So, for example, instead of seeing just a generic welcome page you might see a welcome page with your name on it. \n\n--------\n\nDeleting cookies and tempory files will make your computer faster. \n\n-Tools, Internet Options, on Temporary Internet section of General tab, click Delete Cookies and Delete Files.

Instead of just deleting cookies, you should download Adaware (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/) and Spybot (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html) to clean your system.

A cookie is a packet of information sent by a server to a World Wide Web browser and then sent back by the browser each time it accesses that server. Cookies are mostly used for authentication, tracking, and maintaining user-specific information (preferences, electronic shopping cart, etc.)\n\nIf you want to get rid of the cookies in your browswer, if you're using Internet Explorer, go to Tools>Options and click delete cookies.\n\nTo set advanced cookie options, go to Tools>Options and then click on the Privacy tab. Click "advanced" and set options for cookies. I recommend allow first party cookies and blocking third party cookies. If you want to, you can click "prompt" for first party cookies, if you want to specify whether or not to allow cookies from specific websites (if you do this, you will have to approve all the sites that have to set cookies in your computer).\n\nRemember, though, that some websites can't funcion if you don't accept their cookies!

Your computer might not be saving cookies. Cookies save information from web sites such as passwords. You'd need to alter your security settings to enable them, and you'd need the rights to do that - are you on your own computer or a networked system? On your own computer its quite easy, but if you don't know how to do it, or really what you are doing, it is safer to just re-enter the passwords every time you access the site.

It depends what browser you use.  If it's Internet Explorer, open the browser up and click "Tools" in the top menu bar, and choose "Internet Options".  A little pop-up window will appear, with several tabs along the top.  On that first page, right about the middle, there is a button labeled "Delete Cookies".\n\nOther browsers differ in their specifics, but all the mainstream browsers out there have a similar button somewhere.  search for "cookies" in your browser's help file for more info.

Cookies are small text files that allow a website to store information about your usage of the site.  They can be used to identify you as a unique user so they can accumulate information about how many unique users visit the site.  They also can be used to store preferences you set on a site so that the next time you return they can display the windows the way you customized them.  When you visit a site, your browser will offer up some information about your PC - Computer name, ISP, your IP address and the site you last visited.  This information can also be used as evidence in some cases, and is not stored in a cookie.\n\nAd companies can also store a cookie on your PC from a small 1 pixel display on someone elses website.  These are third-party cookies, and you can disable these separately in your browser.  These cookies can track where an individual PC goes on various internet sites to control the ads that are displayed, but only if that ad company has an agreement with the site. \n\nYou can delete the cookies on your PC - usually in c:windows&#92;cookies, or from your internet browser in most cases.  \n\nAs far as evidence, the cookies stored on your machine can be deleted, but if you truly want to erase them you would need to run some type of disk-erasor on them.  \n\nAn option available to ensure anonymity would be to use a tool bar from http://www.anonymizer.com/ which allows you to surf without identifying yourself.

There are no cookie servers out there. A cookie is simply a small file that is created on your PC as soon as you visit a web site that uses it e.g. Yahoo.com which stores some information about you (personal information) or about your PC or about your behaviors and preferences, so when you visit that web site back, it automatically runs your preferences you left it on the last time you have visited that web site. If you delete that cookie, then your preferences on that site would be reset and it will create a new file on your PC for next time.
