LG: You will soon grow weary of the cookie pop-up! It seems almost every site or even page on the net wants to send a cookie! ;)

Hmmm, I wonder if something else has pegged your IP number and is just pinging you when you click , I get hardly no cookies via SI..very rare.. I'll hunt up a program that tracks the cookies in a day or two, also one that records any writes to your disk, I think your problem goes beyond SI. BTW MY HD light never comes on after I load, until I'm running tons and tons of stuff. I run 4 browsers at one time , plus at least 4 other programs, until I save something to disk, or retrieve a file my HDs never have an access, Most cookies are rejected, and if a site sends very many I drop it from my book marks. If SI was doing what you seem to think I'd be out of here in a heart beat. I have a program that logs every write to my HDs. It will also remove any thing in the log that I tag. I put it on because the MS windows install remove programs thingy is a piece of junk that only half works. It turned out that this logs every write and it location. I needed something like this as things can get confusing, as much junk as I download. So it keeps a data base I can scan ( untill I reset it.) Often I get going and can't remember were I put so and so..( I always tend to over do things ) split my drive into 4 drives trying to sort stuff, but things would still get lost if I didn't have this logger. It's a simple shareware I picked up at Two Cows but it does a good job. Jim
