Guest Joe T Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I changed a setting on my AVG Free program. I'm now getting a window showing I'm getting these cookies. I've probably always got these cookies but it just logged it automatically. I will change it back so I don't get this window. Is this a microsoft cookie? I get it when I first sign on to my MSN home page. Also I get a Mediaplex cookie. The last time I blocked some cookies(I don't think it was these), I was locked out of my banking site and a few others and I don't want to do that again. Are these benign cookies? Do I want to block these? Quote
Guest FromTheRafters Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 My advice is - don't worry too much about cookies.
