SirDracula Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 If I run CCleaner followed right away by Spybot and Lavasoft Adaware, without any other applications running, or browser sessions, etc. Spybot & Adaware still find cookies. For example I just did it and Spybot still found 25 cookies. Is CCleaner not removing all cookies by default? The list under "Cookies to Keep" is empty. This has been going on forever, it's not something new in the recent versions. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFiresInTheSky Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 welcome to the forums make sure you have that option checked to delete cookies. then go to ccleaners settings and theres something that says only delete cookies older than 48 hrs. uncheck that and it should start working fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 48 hrs. option applies to the Windows Temp folders and it's unchecked. As I said, it doesn't delete *all* cookies, some are still left behind.

Glenn Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Do those ccokies show up in the Cookies to Delete list? CCleaner sometimes seems to not "see" cookies that existed before CCleaner was installed or upversioned. Try manually deleting the cookies once.

Well, I delete them with Spybot and Adaware and then a few days later, same thing happens: run CCleaner, deletes most of them, but then again Spybot and Adaware still find a couple more. Next time it happens I'll try and track it down, where these cookies are, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
