Question
Hi
I have Norton 360 and Windows Vista. almost every day when Norton does auto-scans, it finds Tracking cookies. I never open any suspicious e-mail, downloads or websites. will i always have them daily?
If you surf the internet you are going to have tracking cookies. I believe they should be illegal but are apparently not. If you are ever interested in something that is not as much of a resource hog as Norton's, check out Ccleaner. It is free and will clean your registry and internet cookies.
