mrpickem Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 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...

hdood Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 My guess is that you've run IE at some point and probably gotten them from the default MSN portal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biotoxic_hazard_835 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 paranoid much are you ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpickem Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
