  1. Open CCleaner, click options on the left, then click cookies.

     

    On the left hand side you should see a list of sites you have visited (cookies to delete) Click on a one you want to keep and it will highlight it blue.

    Click on the arrow in between to send it over to the right. (the cookies to keep column)

     

    That's it. :)

  2. I have always chosen freeware whenever possible, there are a lot of good free software applications out there, especially in the security area.

     

    I used to have avast but it never really agreed with my computer whereas avira (free) does.

     

    However if a particular piece of software was something I was really interested in using, and I found after a trial that it caused no system problems, I would consider buying it at a reasonable price.

  3. AVG Anti-spyware, for its 'right click>scan with...' function (as well as their on demand scanners of course).

     

    Yes JD, I use that function a lot. Also people tend to forget that in the tools section it has a file shredder with 3 modes, the top one being paranoid mode :lol:

  4. Are you able to do anything in safe mode about your problem?

     

    Also Humpty's suggestion about event viewer is a good one, just put the event id number ( try system errors first) which corresponds with the time of an error in google, it's surprising what it sometimes comes up with.

     

    Try as well going into the device manager, when there do -view- show hidden devices, and look and see if a driver has the yellow exclaimation mark on it.
