Do cookie grabbers exist on every website?

[Box]

I've heard the term 'cookie grabber' applied to just Neopets. I've heard that on Neopets, just by looking someone up or visiting a user's profile, you could be infected by the 'cookie grabber' which collects all of your information on the website and allows the attacker to gain access to your account. Do these exist on websites like Yahoo!, YouTube, Twitter, or is 'cookie grabber' mainly just a Neopets thing? For instance, if I visited someone's Yahoo! Answers profile or Twitter profile, could I have caught the 'cookie grabber'?

" cookie grabber" is kinda funny. Not exactly how that works. At "any site" that you can sign into, become of member of, there is a known Java Script that identifies you when you sign in. It is only specific to that user and no one else. So now way possible to catch the "cookie Grabber" unless it's your own profile, email, IM, etc....etc....... Then it's needed by you and only you

This information is not stored within this script, but within the sites server for security purposes

Cookie grabbers is not a term....what happens when you start up your computer and then go to e-mail then go surfing on the internet....each site places a "tracking cookie" on the computer which you can delete by closing the browser if you have Firefox options set to do so....the other thing you can do is use CC Cleaner free edition and delete all the cookies except maybe your login. cookie....that will keep you from entering your ID and password everytime.......

To manage cookies....click on options then on the cookies tab....the one's you want to keep...click on them and transfer with the > to the right hand column and they will not get deleted.......

Hi,

In order to make the website services work properly on your PC, the web browser needs to offer the services and so cookies are needs. Sometimes, some websites prompt it in the form of a message, while some do not and go for it in a silent way.
