Keeping selected cookies

by Vince.Rosati Feb 13, 2009 1:29AM PST

I periodically delete "Browsing History," which has options for clearing temporary internet files, cookies, etc.

I normally do not clear cookies because I subscribe to several sites that use cookies to ease logon.

Is there a way to protect selected cookies from deletion by the "Internet Options" tool?

Thanks,

Vince

Download and install CCleaner. It has a setting for clearing History and Cookies, and which ones to keep.
