What, pray tell, is "internetism", please?
"Internetisms is the improper use of the English Language. This is mainly
used on IM Programs, Chatrooms, and so on."

Really, it's not Microsoft's fault. It is the fault of every
third-party software company on Earth, every computer on Earth, and
every computer user on Earth. It's also the fault of every tadpole
and ground hog on Earth. Global warming was also a contributing
factor.
Hope that cleared things up for you.

Non-computer nerd user of IE6.
If you don't like Internet Explorer 7, and want to go back to IE6,
go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
Find Windows Internet Explorer 7, highlight it, and click "Remove".
That will take you back to IE6. The roll-back process worked
for me, for which I am grateful to Microsoft.

You have hijacked a thread. If you want to ask a new question, please
start a new thread. Most people here simply ignore thread hijackers.
Did you know that Internet Explorer has built-in cookie management?
You'll find detailed explanation in the Help file. The tools themselves
are in Tools > Internet Options > Privacy.
One person's "tracking cookie" is another's harmless cookie. Since the
term doesn't have a standard definition, don't you think it's a little
unfair to ask if another organization knows how to manage what
/you/consider to be a tracking cookie?
If you want to manage cookies 'your way' why not take advantage of the
thousands of cookie management programs available on the internet, many
available for no or little cost? And while you're on the internet, you
could learn about how to avoid tracking cookies in the first place. You
may even learn the facts about these cookies and realize that they're no
big deal anyway.

Sorry, and I did state that I was not certain I had the correct place.
However the Title of this group is =
"microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general"
If My Anti-Spyware program is showing this as a problem, then I trust it.
Whenever a certain Site is allowing my Cookies to be tracked, that leaves my
Computer open to Many problems which could be a problem.
All I wanted to do was find out how to stop this from happening.
I meant no harm, - and your reply was of no help.
Thanks anyway !

Wouldn't it be much better for you to learn what a so-called tracking
cookie is, and how to tell when it matters (rarely) and when it doesn't,
instead of blindly trusting someone else's judgment? If not, there's
this bridge I would like to interest you in...
And in a larger sense, wouldn't you rather do some research on a topic
before making broad statements that don't reflect well on yourself?
Just my thoughts...you are welcome to ignore them. But my experience
tells me that you'll feel much more confident behind the keyboard when
you know what you're talking about.

...and wouldn't it be better if Mr Grey (by name and nature it would appear)
got his arrogant head out of his fat ass, and stopped dissing other users for
their inexperience. Get a life.
