your

specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own
cookie to
your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect
your
privacy) your browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it
has
already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
Browsers are
usually set to accept cookies. However, if you would prefer not to
receive
cookies, you may alter the configuration of your browser to refuse
cookies. If
you choose to have your browser refuse cookies, it is possible that

computer
viruses.
