Internet Explorer (all other versions)

Internet Explorer saves cookies in more than one location, depending on the version of the browser and the version of Microsoft Windows being used.

The best way to find and delete them is to close Internet Explorer then use your file management software (such as Windows Explorer) and search for a folder called 'cookies'.

Google Chrome

Step 1. Launch the Google Chrome browser.
In this regard you can double click the Chrome desktop icon, click the Chrome icon from the Start menu, or whatever other means you use to launch the software application (I prefer to type in chrome.exe in Run).

Step 2. From the top right hand corner of the Chrome window click the wrench menu (it’s called the wrench menu because it looks like a wrench).

Step 3. A dropdown menu will appear -> click Options.

Step 4. The Google Chrome Options window will now appear. At the top you will see the following tabs: Basics, Personal Stuff and Under the Hood. Click the Under the Hood tab.

Step 5. In the Privacy section there’s a Cookie settings dropdown menu. Right beneath it there’s a button that says Show cookies –> click Show Cookies.

Step 6. The Cookies window will appear. You can now select a specific cookie and get rid of it by clicking Remove. If you want to remove more than one cookie, hold down Ctrl -> select the cookies you would like to remove -> then click Remove. If you want to get rid of all the cookies Chrome has saved so far, just click the Remove all button.

Step 7. Click Close to close the Cookies window -> click Close to close the Google Chrome Options window and you’re done.

Step 3 Find the section marked "Private Data" at the bottom of the window and click the Settings button.

Step 4 Check to be sure that "Cookies" has a check mark in the box beside it. If the box is blank, click it.

Step 5 Select OK. At this point, you have two options. You can have Firefox delete the cookies now, or you can set it up to delete them every time the browser closes.

Step 6 Press "Clear Now" to manually delete all cookie files.

Step 7 Click the box next to "Always clear private data when I exit Firefox."

Step 8 You can also select "Clear Private Data" from the Tools drop-down menu at any time. Or you can press Ctrl+Shft+Del.

In Netscape, all cookies are stored into one file, called Cookies.txt, in the user preferences folder, making them easy to find and delete. The folder can be located by using your file management software to search your hard disk drive for "cookies.txt".

Users of Netscape Navigator 4.x may also stop cookies from being written to the hard drive, by making the cookies file read only. However, even if the browser can't "write" cookies to the hard drive, it can still cache them, and it may create a new cookie file.
