    Hi Koszta, which web browser are you using to surf the Web?

    Hi Koszta. There is a program called, "ccCleaner". It is free. If you install and use this program, I believe that you can hand set which cookies you want to keep and which you want to remove.

    There are other software programs available (such as Registry Mechanic), but the ones that I know, you must pay for.

    I am guessing that Frank will have some helpful advice.

    Be very leary of free software. For every one that is worth having, there are ten that will import melware into your computer.

    Think since lap-top. Run it into my CP Guru. At least still have Face Book-I only go to 3 gardening type-closed sites. No need to see someone naked.

    Hi Koszta. I think you may have given me your homepage, not the Web browser name, Maybe you can visit this link and let me know what it says your web browser is.

    Hi koszta kid,

    Yahoo is not a browser.
