Damn Tracking Cookies!

Had this coming up for a little while now... But can't delete it.

The location it says it's in isn't there... Found a hidden folder and navigated to it, deleted it, but still get the same warning all the time. It only seems to happen when starting a new conversation on MSN or opening Spotify.

Any ideas?

If I'm not mistaken, You don't need to care about them?

Just tell AVG to stop looking for them.

Just tell AVG to stop looking for them.

So they're not doing any harm?

So basically AVG is just yet another pile of **** "security" software?

No, I think they're there just to remember your login details.

If they were actually doing harm then there wouldn't be an option to stop looking for them

Tracking cookies are more a concern for those who are anal about privacy. They pose no actual security threat.
