[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1646199, member: 24160"] First, cookies are not plugins. Second, cookies are not trojans. Third, which is why they would not be detected as such by any anti-virus. Fourth, they are cookies - that's it. Next, not even sure if you are really talking about the cookies have not been removed or if you are merely referring to the auto-fill in the address bar - which would have nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not the cookies have been removed. Need to tell us what browser and exactly where it is that you see these items. Such as if using Safari - open Safari - Preferences - Privacy - Details - and remove cookies from there - now I'm using Yosemite and it's been way too long since I used 10.6 to remember if they'll be in exactly that place or not.
