I think at least one of the purposes of ccleaner is to help delete history of what your computer has been used for (like internet history, etc). In the options menu there is a list of cookies (under cookies to delete). This is practically a list of every website you have been to. I think there should be an option to clear this either manually or with every scan or something else.
??? When you clean your cookies the list should clear. Only the ones on the "Cookies to Keep" side should remain listed.
The Cookies option needs to be checked for Internet Exploder as well as any other browser you use (Applications tab).
thanks
that was my problem, somehow that had become unchecked
