Windows 7, Firefox 10.0.2, use Ghostery addons and better privacy. Despite the blocking cookies, deleting cookies, when I check, I still see a long list of cookies with dates of expiry long duration of life. How can I get rid of them?
Options/life private/Cookies remove all cookies. It's all there on reboot. Can they be deleted? I use Ghostery and Better Privacy and do not Track plus
You may have installed an extension like TACO (Abine) or TrackerBlock that maintains a set of the OPT-OUT cookies.
- Targeted Advertising Cookie Opt - Out (TACO): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/targeted-advertising-cookie-op/
- TrackerBlock: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/trackerblock/
- Beef Taco (targeted Advertising Cookie Opt-Out): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/beef-taco-targeted-advertising/
In this case, you will need to uninstall the extension to remove the opt-out cookies.

I have 14 cookies with 0 bytes that settle 12-30-5000, how do I get rid of them?
I have 14 cookies with 0 bytes that settle 12-30-5000, how do I get rid of them?
In Windows, usually if you can find and see a file then right click with a mouse offers options including rename this file. Rename cookies.sqlite to something like cookies.sqlite. Old1 updates the file out of use; while leaving open the possibility to rename it and re-use it if necessary.
The easiest way to find the file, (it is located in your Firefox profile) is to use:
- Firefox Button-> help-> troubleshooting-> [folder opened] profile information
Firefox will rebuild a file the correct name of the next time you restart Firefox. Delete or rename the files deletes cookies and that you continue to use the cookies of Firefox will be added and updated as usual.

Meeting space Windows took over my computer, wanting me for some experience of laboratory on Vista computers. They change all my files write of false event logs to send to Microsoft to take me off of the internet, mess with my screen and what they want because I will not help them. I read on the Microsoft Forum here that many people complained of Windows support for their computers. It sounds ridiculous, but it's true. It is very difficult to enjoy your computer when this happens. In the Microsoft privacy policy, they tell you how to cancel registered iv6 that has to do with the meeting space. They just hung. They took off my Norton Security 4 times the other night because I wouldn't get them administrator. Who's going to do this right? I don't know who is behind all this. I tried to do a re-installation of operating and they controlled that. I guess I'm stuck with them for life. People of virus cannot remove them because they are Windows! Attention to your users of Vista, they want a private network and they slide people across the firewall. I have proof of all this and friends who have been witnesses and we try to understand the best way to move on this. I just wanted everyone to know.

I have a lot of old e-mail files I try to delete, but they remain in the file from the Recycle Bin of 2009. How can I get rid of them?
If you have an IMAP account, go to Mail/preferences/accounts/box mailbox behaviors and make sure that the store deleted messages on the server is not checked. If this is the case, uncheck the box and see if you can remove the trash.
If that is not working, go to Mail/trash, select an e-mail message and then control - click/Delete. Does it work?

My files media-Cache-clogged my ssd drive. How can I get rid of them?
Hi, I have a few problems with my first Pro CS5 (with all the new free updates installed) on Windows 7 64 bit (up to date also). (I'm German btw. If that makes it easier to help you)
I just added a large number of videomaterial (SLR digital canon h264 fullhd) in my new project (dslr 1920 25 p) in first Pro CS5 and suddenly you have a lot of errors at the bottom right. The hard drive (my bootdisc) ran out of memory and I had only 6 MB left. I didn't know that I had the storageplace for the media cache files.
I immediately changed the two directories for these files after import has been over at my other big hard disks P: and clicked on something like "move the existing files. Unfortunately, this did not have the files to move and I've always had between 600 KB and 30 MB of space on my bootdrive.
Now, I deleted some other files since I can't access the folder to delete or move the files in cache-media-by myself. And I am logged on as an administrator. I'm afraid that my PC does not start with to little space on my ssd bootdrive left and am afraid to start again the CS5 first, since I don't have a lot of other things to delete if sth. won't again.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? How can I get rid of 50 GB of cache-files-media on C:? Please let me know if you do!
Greetings,
OLE
Since I've had 500 MB left I risked to restart the computer and files were deleted just by restarting I guess. Now, I'm still 18 GB free. Thanks a lot for your help! I deleted a file I accidentally created this way and now a gb. :-)

I tried to reinstall firefox and run security scans and nothing gets rid of them. Also, when I click on the page I'm it opens a new window with an advertisement.
Hello jmartin6240, you can have present malicious addons. Please, try the following steps:
- Reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
- then go to firefox > addons > extensions and where there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
- Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to ensure that adware is not present in other parts of your system as well.
