When I first ran it I found 70+ nasties lurking around that was spying into my on-line habits. I now run it weekly and have found a couple more are sneaked in each week. It has helped me clear a great deal of junk from the system. Hope it helps, ken Knight advaitin, Ananda Wood > <awood@v...> wrote: > > Professor V.

The worst was a nasty that hijacked my browser to a homepage of its choosing (a sex- and gambling-site search page). I downloaded Ad-Aware and SpyBot from www.cnet.com that fixed it. There's also a setting in Internet Explorer that sets it to delete all temporary files every time you close the browser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 These settings can become a real headache! They are spread over three different tabs - Security, Advanced - security, etc. It certainly slows down the 'surfing'. This is the message I got when I tried to open the last message: "Your browser is not accepting our cookies. To view this page, please set your browser preferences to accept cookies (code 5). Try Again" !!!!!!!!! advaitin, Gregory Goode <goode@D...> wrote: > At 02:43 AM 6/3/2004 -0700, ken knight wrote: > > > ===I cleaned out 1779 last weekend!

I understand your frustrations, but I think it is worth the effort to update the settings. You would set the browser to accept 'First Party Cookies' but block 'Third Party Cookies'. You can do this by going to the Advanced button on the Privacy tab. I hope this helps. Harih Om! Neelakantan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Thank you! That certainly helped. This is not one of the 'Default'settings. Wonder if they will ever make this 'User- friendly!!
