If cookies are a worry, do as I do. I run a program called SpyHunter that
runs on boot up every time. It then offers to scan my compiuter for Spy
Ware. Since that takes some time I usualy opt only for a scan of my cookies.
This takes about 2 seconds, no more, and I have a full report on the cookies.
Since I have 17 cookies that are legitimate I usualy just look at the count.
If it hasnt increased I go on. BUT there is also displayed a list of any
dangerous cookies, their properties and who owns them. If the list is blank
then all is well. If not I stop and delete the offending cookies. The
software is FREE.
This is a fabulous referral; thank you! I'll check it out as soon as I
get a moment - much appreciated!
I do run WindowWasher, but it runs on shut-down, and sometimes my
machine is on for a day at a time - quite long hours for a laptop that I
use at the office and at home, too.

I am VERY interested. But I run Windows 98 SE in order
to run the E11 PDP-11 emulator. Will SpyHunter and/or
WindowWasher run under Windows 98 SE? If so, is
there a site that I can use to download these 2 programs
and the documentation needed to understand how to use them?
Sincerely yours,
Jerome Fine
