I delete all my cookies using cc cleaner before I shut down my computer. Is it really that hard to retype all those username and passwords.

Firefox + Permit Cookies Add-on - Works nicely for me and is easy to use.

I chose other. I still use Cookie Crusher on my 98SE box with IE 5.5. It was the first software I ever purchased that didn't come on that old computer. I use the old version (newer one acts as a proxy and I use the Proxomitron so I didn't want two proxies) that still works fine.

For Fx and Seamonkey, on the 98SE box and on my XP box, and IE6 on the XP box, I use custom settings and never allow third party cookies and have all browsers ask each time about first party and do not allow session cookies. Nothing works well on Opera though sadly to say but Opera is not as bad as Safari. Safari is a great browser as it is by far the fastest, but its cookie handling is like that of IE 5.5 so I only use it for a very few trusted sites where I allow cookies.

I also use Proxo, but not for cookie control. I may look into third party cookie control for Safari if any work with Safari.

Thank you for the excellent Poll lil'!

I voted IE Privacy Keeper (a little known program that's been around forever), IECookies View, and I've even been 'playing' around with CCleaner.

(Yes, that's right, jabarnut...the anti-registry cleaner guy)

Bottom line though, I really have these programs 'just to have' and because I like to 'play'....like my friend dadkins See Profile, Cookies just don't bother me at all. (Sometimes I even like to collect them!)

And if and when they do bother me, I can control them within the Browsers I use.

Thank you Lisa

CCleaner, CookieWall, and most of all: other (=IEClean, special build).

PS:
IEClean (and his brother NSClean) are no longer supported since Comodo acquired PSC.
I very much regret that.....

Thank you lilhurricane for handling this poll!
I've got a whole new perspective on what goes into them...
I voted Other:
My cookie controls are either browser handled, or I manually go in there and remove the ones I don't want. I like that once I've removed a cookie in Firefox, it automatically no longer accepts further cookies from that site.

Hey, Lil did a poll ! Lovely job, thanks.

All my cookies are session-only, so clean-up is a breeze, but I do use CCleaner and MRU-Blaster in Windows. Most often, though, browsers tidy up after themselves.

I chose "other" rather than "none" because I think that I do control my cookies, but I do it by using the settings in IE and FF with no other software or add-ons.

said by Owlbet See Profile :

I have IE7 set up to allow first party cookies and to block third party cookies.
I also do this in addition to using CCleaner. I voted CCleaner and Other.

"Other" & CCleaner

Firefox built in controls.

CCleaner for secondary Programs that use cookies.

It is a capital mistake to theorize before you have all the evidence. It biases the judgment.
