    Type shell:cookies into start/search and hit Enter. That will give you the "normal" cookies. Tracking cookies hide in various places. Best is to run SuperAntiSpyware to flush them out.

    whs - Is SuperAntiSpyware more effective for cookie removal than CCleaner ? Or would you recommend using both ? Thanks !

    I've found out that if you run CCleaner first then SuperAntiSpyware doesn't find anything.

    If you run SuperAntiSpyware first then it will find some tracking cookies.

    So I just use CCleaner.

    I use both Cclaener and SAS. About once a week I run SAS in safe mode and some times it will find some left overs.

    CCleaner dows not remove tracking cookies. Use SAS for that.
