Cookies are files that send your information to the Advertisers so they can track their leads.  You need to clean your cookies before signing on to any GPT site and between offers that you do.

You can download the cleaner at www.ccleaner.com.  Its free and very helpful when doing GPT sites.

Good luck to you.  :wave:

dont worry about it.

the files mentioned usually mean temp internet files.... those are files stored when you visit a site that enables the site to load faster when you go back to that same site again.

BUT.... understand this..... when you remove cookies.... and you should..... but.... any site where you need a password to access... you'll NEED to remember those passwords because cleaning those cookies will remove the cookie that holds your passwords. (well it isnt THE password per se, its the cookie thats placed on your computer to show you accessed the password section of that site)

make sense?

side note.... i like chocolate chip cookies.

with cold milk.
