Windows RC 7100 x64 (I love it!)

I did a clean install to freshly formatted disk and after only visiting microsoft for updates, I found these ucky cookies on my first scan. Is MS really watching us that closely...

If cookies are the worst thing that is ever found on your system then I think you'll live.

Well the telemetry/CEIP is enabled by default, so when you're connected to the tubes you're computers sending back data on how you're using it to MS.

paranoid much are you ?

Not paranoid really...no more than the next guy anyways.

I only visited msn.com by default when I open IE and was surprised to see these cookies all there from that one visit.

Panda does have a cute icon, but it sucks and a system hog...right there with Norton IMO. I just thought I would test it since it was free off their beta site, but they can keep it. I am now using kaspersky and like it pretty well, also free for 8 month on beta trial program.

Any site with banners will be filling your machine with cookies from advertisting agencies. That's life on the web.
