Insider Outrage Why are some companies so intent on collecting a complete profile of visitors to their product information site, that they drive them away with having to say "no" to as many as 17 cookies per page? __ Tens of thousands of cookies that could pile up in the jar in a year of browsing, and many do not expire until the year 2030. A large number of items can bog down your directory and slow up performance. If you just clean out your cookie jar at the end of each session, the file names remain in your directory until you rebuild your desktop. __ Please e-mail me about any experiences you have had with the new cookie interceptors that silently and automatically say "no", and also with programs to filter out spam. Stupendous Gift The Complete National Geographic is the entire 108 years, all 188,800 pages, with every illustration and ad, in color, with a search engine. This handsomely boxed set of 30 CDs is just $199 list and there is a $149 limited time special offer. What a gift! From Mindscape 1 800 234-3088.
