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.

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.
