Hello, I use vista sp2 home basic OS , i use firefox for my browser, I use avira free, and iobit 360.
After browsing on Yahoo answers, i run the iobit 360 and it finds ad.yeildmanager.com tracking cookies.
I have put them in the block exceptions in the browser.
But, they still will show up, is this normal for google search and yahoo.com to use these cookies ?
