Its targeted advertising by the cookies left on your computer from visiting web sites. You can use a FREE program called CCleaner. (be aware that this program will also delete saved passwords.) make sure you have your passwords memorized or written down somewhere before you run it. 

 

This is the website https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download   Directions on how to use it, click on Analyze, then click on Clean.

 

​Don't down load this program from any other sites this is the manufactures web site and its safe.

 

I have been a computer tech for 22 years I use this program for my computer and all of my clients, its works well. And the best part its FREE

If I have my passwords in a separate file ( e-mailed to myself)  will they be deleted?

If you set up CC properly, it will not delete your passwords.

I've been using it for YEARS, all the way back to the days

when it was originally named CrapCleaner.

One thing that you do need to do before running it is to

create a folder on your desktop and name it CCRegBkUp.

When you use the registry cleaning option, use that

folder for storing the registry change back ups, just in

case you need to restore it.

 

Wise Disk Cleaner and Wise Registry Cleaner are also

two very good programs to run.

 

Malware Bytes is very good for checking for and cleaning

off maleware, adware, spyware, and other "bad"ware.


Almost forgot.

 

Firefox with the Adblock Plus add on

works great for killing ads.

 

I've got cookies on my computer right now.

 

Don't see a single ad here.

 

Ghostery in an add on that stops

tracking bugs.

 

And NoScript prevents Java from running on

every site you land on, just the ones that you

want it to run on.

Used a crap cleaner before-had Nothing to do with a computer!

as far as cookies-I eat them

Maleware,spyware,adware,to me is all badware.

 

I will ask my kids about all of this! they know!
