Thank you kroozer, it's back in the keepers. Any idea how it got here?

kroozer - I don't see a cookie with my name @c: But what do you make of the analysis that it is an xml cookie?

Thank you Alan_B, I did as you said and below is a txt of the analysis. Looks harmless, can anyone else opine?

http:// Maybe try this? I took a picture with my camera phone and put it on an image host.

I do not have paint program, used to not now, don't know why. All my accessories like calculator are missing, discovered this awhile back, never thought to replace, never used them much LOL

To everyone: thank you for your interest! To Nergal: As long as I keep the "C:" in cookies to keep, CC will clean cookies in the "to delete" section. To Hazelnut: Windows XP SP3, and I was just speculating how this odd "cookie" came to appear one day in my cookies to delete, and that I moved it to cookies to keep. I was just wondering if this was the result of a trojan, but I have no proof. To Dennis D: I have used screenshot programs before, but they become imcompatible add-ons to newer browser versions of Firefox. I can right click on any web page to bring up a screenshot tool from my Bing Bar, but right clicking wont work on CC. Sometimes I can Control P to create a Microsoft Image print, but that also won't work on CC. I am studying your extensive post on Faststone Capture so hopefully I will have a visual for everybody soon.

I cannot generate a screen shot, but the area in question has the IE icon with "C:" (my quotes)

I'm so sorry! I missed your post, please forgive me - I thought I would be notified by email so I kind of forgot about my posting. But I'm kind of scared to drag C: to the delete column if you know what I mean. What kind of confidence can you give me that I won't erase everything? Obviously I'm a newbie when it comes to these things...But I appreciate your prompt response. Thank you.

I noticed in my "cookies to delete" section the following: "c:" (my quotes). I moved it to "cookies to keep", but there is no way to remove it. I tried uninstalling and re-installing, but there it is again. Is this a result of some old virus that directed my c drive to be deleted this way? I have run countless scans with a number of different scanners, but my computer is otherwise clean. Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions? Thanks!
