This is where Cookie Control helps. When enabled, Cookie Control will ask for your
permission whenever a new website tries to set a cookie:
Cookie Alert
You can see the name of the application that is
trying to send the cookie file.
Check Remember this answer option and click
Yes or No and a rule will be created, applied and
listed in the rules table. You will no longer be
notified the next time when you connect to the
same site.
This will help you to choose which websites you trust and which you don't.
Note
Because of the great number of cookies used on the Internet today, Cookie Control
can be quite bothersome to begin with. At first, it will ask a lot of questions about sites
trying to place cookies on your computer. As soon as you add your regular sites to the
rule-list, surfing will become as easy as before.
Every rule that has been remembered can be accessed in the Cookie section for
further fine-tuning. To access this section, open the Advanced Privacy Control
Settings window and click the Cookie tab.
Note
To open the Advanced Privacy ControlSettings window, click Privacy Control>Status
in the settings console and click Advanced Settings.
