I have noticed that every time I logon to Maldiviandigital and check posts that I find interesting, even if I don't respond myself to these posts, I seem to pick up between 5 and 15 tracking cookies on C drive.
I log out correctly and get the message "All cookies deleted", then when I run Adaware between 5 and 15 cookies are found that can only have come from this site.+Crr
I don't know what the purpose of these cookies is but I admit it worries me to have something placed on my hard drive that I didn't request or want.

I think all vbulletin site and all forums there may be cookies
we have set our cookies our forum name .maldiviandigital.com
most websites they set as deafault, vbulletin have more options as blank or / forward slash '/forums/', '/vbulletin/' or any custome name
If your on Guest also they may have some cookies
we have our forum in secure format https://www.maldiviandigital.com
If you feel this risk or you may ask questions directly vBulletin Community Forum - Powered by vBulletin (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum)

If you run ad aware, then with a clean pc, log on to your home page, log straight off again, then run adaware again..... how many tracking cookies do you get.!!!
