Yo Mic and any other experts.
I have read the posts and searched it too. I do not
have a version of netscape that has the show alert
anytime there is a cookie given so I cant block them.
I tried downloading the shareware cookies program
previously suggested and got a message that it was
intended to be used under a different windows program
so now I'm getting impatient & just want to delete them
but there's a message on my cookies file saying
"do not edit". My specific question still stands:
What if I delete some individual cookies?
What if I delete the whole file?
Anybody know the answer???
