    Hello,

    i have problem with cookies. Every time i try to sign in Ebay or Gmail, i receive message : "Your browser's cookie functionality is turned off. Please turn it , on." . Ofcorse, my cookies were already turned on, but anyway i got this message. I tried with IE, Mozzila, Chrome, and with all browsers i got same problem. I google it may times, i tried million things, but nothing solves this problem. So i assume that problem is not with browsers, problem may be with WIN XP, i don't know, so i ask you for help, this thing makes me crazy.

    Thanks... cheers...

    First you want to run scans to ensure your system is clean:

    1. what is your current antivirus?

    2. do the following regardless of what other scanners you are using:

    Download, install, update and do full scan with these free malware detection programs:

    Malwarebytes (MBAM): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    Remove all found, reboot, and run again until scans run clean, these can be removed afterwards if you so choose.
    ------------------------------------------------------------

    Once system is clean then the following are instructions for 1. chrome, 2. firefox, 3. IE8
    for deleting and clearing caches and browsing history and reseting:
