(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Well I don't know if many people know this but, you should clear your cookies every day. The annoying part is it will log you out of any sites. What this does is

it basically prevents stuff from being stolen on you. the programs iStealer and Rats (remote administration tools) basically open your cookies and steal all the passwords user names etc.. that are saved in them

an iStealer log looks like this:

But anyone who has tried has obviously got some logs

And Rats do the same thing as well.

Basically to make clear you should use a CCCleaner (Crypt Cleaner) as well Which will delete all your internet cookies, history and stuff like that

To download crypt cleaner click here:

Or to clear your cookies normally on Firefox follow this small tutorial:

Click tools then options

then Click remove individual cookies

then click remove all cookies! then you are done

Google chrome:

Go to the spanner then options or go to this link

chrome://settings/advanced

Hit clear browsing data

Your done!

Opera:

I dont have opera but have seen this text tutorial

How can I delete cookies?

If you wish to delete the cookies, please do the following:

* Select Menu > Tools
* Joystick right and down to Private data
* Joystick right and select Delete cookies
* You can also choose Delete cache,Delete loginsand Delete history

Internet explorer

Hit Tools > Options

then click Delete

Then click Delete again:

and your done!

This tutorial was written by me.

I Just want to make sure your passwords are safe and you know what your cookies do

Open unsecured networks = Hackers dream. It's nice that you can infect other computers over an unsecure network which they then take home and if you have it setup as a spreader, it could then use their network to infect other computers in their household or flashdrives they use which they would put into another computer for more spread...

It's how it works...

Haven't done it but it's been done by others in the past..

or if you have a network that its unsecured then people sound just use metasploit to gain access by using the hail Mary attack or a java drive by attack or even worse is that someone could use a wifi pineapple and deauthenticate everyone on your network and route it through pineapple and get all you passwords watch everything you type and send over the internet, basically any hacker with the knowledge of these 2 things are a nightmare, but i must say it is quite fun Smile
gone a little bit of topic there but on the WiFi pineapple you have a thing called cookie thief and basically if some one has saved there Facebook password to there browser all the info you have entered is saved into the cookie and inject it into my browser and boom you automatically logged into there Facebook page.
