You're welcome.

yieldmanager.com blocks cookies from yieldmanager.com and all of its subdomains, including ad.yieldmanager.com.  By the way, these cookies were not placed by Firefox, so Firefox couldn't have blocked them in the first place.

   C:\Documents and Settings\Vaio\Cookies\vaio@ad.yieldmanager[2].txt

I have to go now.  I'll check back tomorrow.

Edit: Grammar

Both adinterax.com and yieldmanager.com are already in the CS Lite blocklist.  http://cookies.softwareblaze.com/

You can download the blocklist by right-clicking on the CS Lite status bar icon and selecting Update Blocklist.

Hope this helps.  Please let us know whether it does.

CS lite alone is great......no malware or tracking cookies.

Is there a way to copy this list & add to blocked in IE>Tools>Options>Privacy>Sites>Block......or how to import from FF?

Thanks Alan Baxter.

Always a first time lol Mr. Tech....just came to my mind.

Thanks!

Not easily, but it's not necessary.  Just use Spyware Blaster.  That's what I do.  It's not a real-time scanner and doesn't conflict with any other software.  Not only does it update the IE cookies block list, it also populates IE's list of restricted sites and blocks ActiveX from known bad sites,  I highly recommend it.  Spyware Blaster also adds its own cookie block list to Firefox.  It's list has about 230 sites in it, most of which overlap with the CS Lite block list.  Go ahead and let Spyware Blaster "Enable All Protection".  It coexists with CS Lite perfectly well.

Edit: Corrected url.
