computer the beginning of last year.

that's a good find as it exposes a hidden location where cookies are lurking,
usually cookies are stored in a browser cache file. the fact that some cookies
are tucked away inside the Microsoft folder is interesting( i tried this on a
vista system and it still works).
with regards to ccleaner, I would recommend yo have it set to do a clean every
time you start your system, that way all the dross from the previous session
will be wiped. I also think that ie can be set to only remember cookies for the
current session but that required a bit more searching as i generally use
Firefox.

After reading Jim's question I went for a mooch around the net, and found the
following instruction to find cookies on a Win 7 machine with IE as the browser.
Bring up your Run dialogue with win key plus r, and in there type, or just
copy and paste,
%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies
and this should bring up a store of cookie txt files. I was slightly
surprised to discover the better part of 3400 in my collection! Especially as I
use CCleaner every six to eight weeks.
Now, I'm no expert, and if what I've said here is complete nonsense and
irrelevant, I've offered it up only as another cookie finding method.
Incidentally, I selected all and deleted them so much misery may lie ahead!

BTW, I'd say your question is quite on topic for this list. How to delete
cookies is definitely technology related, is it not?
Cheers,

As was mentioned it depends on your browser to where you can delete cookies
from. Generally you can do that somewhere in your browser's settings. In IE it
is settings > general page then hit the button that says delete where you'll be
presented with all the options to delete cookies and temporary internet files.
Alternatively, you can install a cleaner tool to do this. I would recommend
CCleaner. I've been using the free version for good few years and it is very
good.

Hi all,
Firstly, apologies to the moderator for this off topic question, but not
sure where else i could get an answer.
I’ve noticed recently that some web sites have this cookie policy that says
if you continue to use the site it will be assumed that you accept the cookies.
There’s no button to decline the cookie and so it’s a case of don’t use the
site or get a cookie. My question is, if I accept the cookie, how do i delete
it at a later time, for example as soon as i leave the site? Your suggestions
will be appreciated, step by step please.
Thanks in advance.
Jim
