Tracking Cookies

[kingmickez25]

Well i downloaded Avg And it says i have a bunch of tracking cookies. and i beleive it beacuse when go to some of my favorite sites it redirects me to some spam website. Well i let it scan then i remove all unhealed stuff and blah

 

Someone advised i download malwarebytes I ran that but nothing showed up?

 

Is AVG just give me false postives.

 

i also went straight to the folder were all these tracking cookies are and delted them.

 

 

 

I need a program that will take care of all this tracking cookie stuff and fix my computer back to its [cabbage]ty glory any reccomdations?

Spybot: Search and Destroy kills most of my tracking cookies. Not sure how good it is, though. I've just used it since I got my computer because my dad uses it.

I was just about to post that. Seriously. Spybot rapes all of that crap.

Seems like you have some adware.

 

I would unistall AVG and get something better like Microsoft Security Essentials or Avira Antivir.

 

Also tracking cookies are not dangerous, they cannot do any harm to the computer, although it is good to remove them if you want.

Avira's free AntiVir personal is pretty good, I've used it for a couple years now as a replacement for Norton and it's done just fine :)

Tracking cookies just track which sites you visit. If your browser is redirecting you to spam sites, you probably have a browser hijacker. It happened to me, they are a pain to remove.
