Tracking cookies are the part of the Internet browsing history that any web browser saves on your computer. Cookies store user website preferences, login information and even online shopping carts or wish lists. Thus, cookies contain highly specific user information, and many spyware programs attempt to read cookies saved on a computer. Internet Explorer and Firefox are the most popular web browsers that allow to selectively remove tracking cookies without deleting the entire Internet history. Open Internet Explorer. Click “Tools” in the Internet Explorer menu and then “Internet Options.” Select the “General” tab and click “Delete” in the field “Browsing history.” If you are using Internet Explorer 7, click the button “Delete Cookies.” If you’re using Internet Explorer 8, check the “Cookies” box and uncheck the box “Preserve Favorites website data.” Click “Delete.” Open Firefox. Select “Tools” and “Clear Private Data” from the menu.
