Hello

When I check for problems using Spybot S&D I find Doubleclick and Fastclick cookie. These cookies are associated with IE(I'm always using firefox). After I fix the problems I do another scan and it finds the same exact cookies. They are displayed in red, and from reading the tutorial this is bad. Why are they not going away? Any insight would be appreciated.

I am from Serbia, now I live in Sweden. My english is definatley not the best, I sometimes tend to misunderstand things. I hope that someone understands my problem.

It also shows how to remove specific cookies,if you'd rather not delete all cookies.

This shows how to block third-party cookies,which should help keep the fastclick and doubleclick cookies off your computer:
