Best bet is to uninstall your browsers. Then you should be a bit safer. You might also consider selling your modem. This won't fully protect you but should help soften the blow.
We will miss you. 😊 Sent from Windows Mail From: Greg Keogh Sent: ‎Friday‎, ‎13‎ ‎December‎ ‎2013 ‎7‎:‎46‎ ‎AM To: ozDotNet Welcome Friday, After comments in here a couple of weeks ago about cookies causing targeted ads in Google and Facebook, I went looking for a way of inspecting and selectively deleting cookies. I couldn't find a way to inspect cookies in IE10 or 11, so perhaps there is a non-obvious way I didn't stumble upon? So I knocked up a WinForms app with a grid to list and delete cookies. The results are frightening! I had about 390 cookie files, most from evil, suspicious or incomprehensible Urls. I deleted all but a dozen that I confidently recognise. Lord knows how the advertisers are collaborating with the contents of cookies. Is there a global cookie conspiracy? I can see a great movie plot in this. There used to be settings in IE to select allowable cookies, but it was impossible to manage because you couldn't "know" the ones you'd want to allow, and you'd get zillions of cookie popup warnings about the barrage of other cookies. Maybe that facility is better now, I'll have a look. I suppose other browsers have better anti cookie features as well. Greg K
