I know this is likely a very basic question but here goes....
Is it OK to send the cookies in my temp file to the recycle bin? Do
I have to sort them or can I delete them all? I'm running XP
Professional.

Cookies are a way a website keeps track of your preferences and
sometimes, even your password.
They can be deleted or not even allowed and most sites will still
"function".
I would suggest "SHIFT+DELETE" to bypass the Recycle Bin.. Or better
yet - use the internal tools in IE to erase them.
OK...now you've lost me on the internal tools in IE....haven't a clue
what you mean. And what are you doing up so late? Can I delete all
of the cookies and still have things work ok?
Late is relative to where you live. This is a worldwide
distributed/accessible newsgroup.
Late is also relative to who you are.
Open Internet Explorer.
Across the top you see "File" "Edit" "View" "Favorites" "Tools" "Help"
Click on Tools..
Click on Internet Options..
Make sure you are under the GENERAL tab..
Look for and use the "Delete Cookies" button.
Cookies are worthless unless you don't know your passwords and such to
certain sites.
