Tracking cookie?

[soLitary]

Everytime i open up my world of warcraft my antivirus picks up that some kind of tracking cookie was opened or something? I think its something that can track my stuff i dont click remember my password on wow so that may be a good thing. Ive gotten hacked on wow before and im worried. Anything to worry about if so how to get rid of?

http://www.avast.com/index this AV has picked up more trojans, malware, spyware, and cookies than any other I have used. One of my favorite websites had been getting me regularly and I didn't know it til i downloaded avast. It's free too. You could have more issues than just a recurring cookie. What Antivirus do you use?

Tracking cookies are common, they just see what you search etc on the internet and tailor ads to what your into.

It doesn't harm you at all, but I run http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner and it gets rid of all cookies etc.

I use avg, it started to work now with deleting viruses so i should be fine. I also ran cccleaner and got scared cuz it asked for boot stuff and i dont have a windows cd but it fixed up to where i can run it normally (prolly never doing it again). I opened wow and the tracking cookie still comes up even after cleaner. Easier way to clear cookies?

Boot stuff? All you do is install it, open it and click run ccleaner. Make sure you don't click registry on the side.

It's 100% harmless and shouldn't mess with any boot files, it just clear all old cookies/temp internet files
