[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1952077, member: 204485"] I think I would be tempted to delete all Cookies and History. This will not remove Bookmarks but will get rid of data that might be loading along with websites you have browsed. What web browser are you using, are you in the habit of clicking on links in news sites. This can be a real minefield even with a reliable big name site like CNN because they're such targets for spyware, trackers and more. That's why I use Brave browser. For example in Brave I searched for CNN News. I opened the page and this is the report I get from Brave Shields; [ATTACH type="full"]40462[/ATTACH] 34 Trackers and ads blocked!!! Sure lots will just be statistics/survey tools and ads for who knows what but I wouldn't click on any of them even if they weren't blocked. [/QUOTE]
