Hi all

I am wondering if there is a way to prevent the cookies in the title getting into my system, every day I scan and delete these cookies but the very next day they are back.

It is really annoying!

Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening in the first place?

Thanks all :santa:

It would help to know your web browser. That way we can provide specific instructions for it.

Sorry for the delay in responding moonblood, I was out of town for a few days unexpected.

I use chrome as my default browser, I also have KIS installed so I do not want to use tea timer or immunize.

Thanks for any help

Not to jump into the thread,but I peeked in before logging off,and figured I might as well throw my two cents in. :)
This page has info for cookie management in Chrome:

Adjust cookie permissions

1. Click the wrench icon tools menu on the browser toolbar.
2. Select Options (Preferences on Mac and Linux; Settings on Chrome OS).
3. Click the Under the Hood tab.
4. Click Content settings in the "Privacy" section.
5. Click the Cookies tab in the Content Settings dialog that appears:

If you click to open Block cookies by default,it shows how to block third-party cookies.That should block most of the cookies you listed in the title. :)


Block only third-party cookies: Select the "Ignore exceptions and block third-party cookies from being set" checkbox. Even if you've added a site to the Exceptions list and have chosen to allow its cookies, the site's third-party cookies won't be accepted if this checkbox is selected.
