Re: NAV 2007 Finds 7 Cookies

I set 1st-party cookies to Prompt, 3rd-party to Block and Per-session to
Always Allow. Can be irritating to have to frequently decide whether to
allow or block 1st-party cookies, but with time the training sets in (using
the "Always" checkbox, whether they're Allowed or Blocked.) Fairly easy to
edit the list, in any case. I seldom if ever have to clean out all cookies.
Just do it manually every few weeks or during regular IE maintenance. The
list is usually small, since even 1st-party cookies are usually useless to
me.

You might like to set "Privacy" settings in IE to manual, and allow "First
party cookies" and/or session cookies, and definately select "reject third
part cookies." I find it strangely annnoying, and satisfying, that 3rd
part cookies are rejected, (red symbol on IE's status bar), when I'm using
IE, particularly during online banking.

In case you haven't already done it, drop the hosts file into the
relevant directory:-

OK, should I be concerned. One of them says liveperson, but how do I tell
if they are a threat?
