Is there a way to prevent certain sites from placing cookies on the computer?
For example: I get cookies from sites like this:
edge.sharethis.com und addfreestats.com
and want them not to be able to do it. Is it possible?
Thanks
yes there are a couple of ways, & it's often best to use a layered approach
if you use internet explorer try http://winhelp2002.m.../restricted.htm
if you use Firefox or Chrome (or Opera?) there are plugins/extensions that'll do the job (better?)
Also take a look at blocking such domains via hosts file. Doing this way will block no matter which browser is used

however some sites may not function properly(very few, I & many members here use the file happily 99.9999% of the time)
also do you mind if I move this to the general software section as it really doesn't pertain to ccleaner
