Thanks for the feedback, and yes, you can leave it off. The only disadvantage
in doing so that I can think of is that you will have to retype the info
necessary to allow you logging into those sites that would otherwise be
automatically entered by your browser.
That is why I use a live Linux CD to access the internet. Once I shut down all
info, cookies, etc. are gone.
BTW, here's an article on "LPS", a distro designed and free to anyone from the
U.S. DOD
<http://www.informationweek.com/news/government/security/231002431>, specially
for anyone doing online banking.

Armando, I read the
link you sent. Kind of scarey. But after I sent the post it occured to
me I couold search for an answer. I didn't save the link. It was a
Microsoft forum.
This is the
directions they gave to get rid of them. I tryed it and it
worked.
Go to internet
options,general tab,clicked delete on the box that came up to save
history browsing,unclicked preserve favorite website,clicked
delete,ok,rebooted and the ad cookies were gone. I then went back and
clicked preserve fovorit website setting. Checked after surfing awhile
they are still gone.
Now I have another
question. Is it Ok to just leave that setting unclicked?
Also I don't have
in private filtering clicked. Should it be?

I have some
cookies in internet options I cannot delete. They are mostly ad's. Is
there a way I can delete them? I used easy cleaner,ccleaner and
internet options from tools none of the will delete them. They expire
in2013.
