A Question
True story from Sunday 08Apr.
Was happily reading/contributing to pprune when your's truly had to answer a pressing call of nature. I disconected from "Dial-Up Network" and proceded to take care of nature's call (The page was still on my screen). This involved a lengthy "sit-down" whist contemplating the latest issue of Flight Intl.
Job done, one returns to his computer, only to discover that it has reconnected to some garbage (valueclick?)and has been happily connected while i was having a d*mp.
NOT IMPRESSED.
Seriously: How can I avoid this in future. Cookies are banned from my PC.

You dont by any chance have recently installed IE 5.5?. If so I have the same problem which I thought was resolved by changing settings in outlook, but it has returned.
I have gone through all the usual things but cant find anything at all that is causing this.
Personally I think it has something to do with IE 5.5, but even microsoft havent got an answer.
If anyone can help I would be interested in the answer.

The link below takes you to the Product support area in Microsoft.com and the Newsgroups where several people are reporting similar things, it also has a lot of info on cookies etc.
This may answer some of the questions.

Thanks folks; no nothing to do with 5.5
Here's another story - was late in replying 'coz my graphics card developed a mind of its own (would only work in 16 colours/480x680). Well I got it sorted a few minutes ago but here's the killer: My dial-up connection is now running at DOUBLE data xfer rate!!!! Not complaining, but all I did was re-install Win98 & graphics drivers & monitor drivers. Weird.
