Cookie



A file or data item left on your computer by a server or other system you've connected to. They are most commonly used to allow the server to record information about what screens you've already seen and any personalizing information you've supplied. Many users find this an invasion of Privacy, as few systems tell you they are collecting and recording data. There are a number of "anti-cookie" software that automatically erase any such data between visits to your site.
