Customizing cookie control
Internet cookies make it possible for e-commerce sites (like Amazon, for example) to recognize you as soon as you arrive and customize the pages you visit. However, cookies can also be used to record information about your Web browsing habits and give that information to marketers and advertisers.
Default medium cookie control setting balances security with convenience by blocking only third-party cookies-those cookies that are used to track your viewing habits. Session cookies and persistent cookies are allowed.
If you wish, you can instantly block all cookies by choosing the high cookie-control setting, giving you full protection against all types of cookie abuse--but at the expense of the convenience that cookies make possible.
You can customize cookie control by specifying which types of cookies are blocked and if cookies are allowed, when those cookies should expire.
The Privacy group of features that includes cookie control is available in Zone Alarm Pro and Zone Alarm Pro with Web Filtering.
