We had a
poll in the Software forum, asking what programs are used to control cookies.
There were 164 total participants in the poll.
It was a multiple choice poll, so people could vote for more than one program.
Several people posted that they use more than one program.
The clear winner was the freeware program
CCleaner.
It got 33.3% of the votes.
Second in place was "none" with 19.9% of the votes.
Some posters wrote that they don't care about cookies.
Others posted that they use their browser settings.
Third in place was "other" with 12% of the votes.
Similar to the "none" option, some posters wrote that they use their browser settings.

•

And to quote from last year's FAQ about Cookie Controls:
"No files are destroyed or compromised by cookies, but if it concerns you about being identified or about having your web browsing traced through the use of a cookie, either set your browser to not accept cookies or use one of the cookie blocking programs available to you."Links verified as of 10-03-06
