Spyware Options

[1--GIRL]

So I was scanning my computer checking for virus, spyware, etc etc.

Report shows that I've a spyware known as a "Tracking Cookie".

Definition: Tracking cookies track your web browsing habits. Tracking cookies are browser settings giving advertisement websites a unique id for the user. The tracking cookies are constantly re-added when you browse the web.

I try deleting it, but it won't work. Anyone know how using Shaw Secure or any other way?

Thanks.

Oh, and by the way.. does anyone know any information on this "Tracking Cookie"? Is it harmful to my computer and will it remember my e-mail passwords and all?

Tracking cookies, as mentioned above, aren't typically harmful. However, there should have been an option in your SpyWare program (once it's done scanning) to delete the potentially harmful files. At least Ad-Aware does.

This topic is also pretty helpful.
