Hello,

I use AVG to scan my pc because it's the best free anti-virus i know around now days norton just slows computers down and don't work with most programes.

However when i scan i get

"Found tracking cookie" - "Potentially dangerous object"

It's listed for about 30 files the files are all in; C:\Users\Flex\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

I'm not sure if you can help me here or if this should be posted on AVG's Site if i can't get it resolved i'll have to remove Firefox as its always showing up in scan results.

I can't remove it as it said it'll harm my computer (maybe!)

Tracking cookies aren't "dangerous".

IMO, this is a much better "free" anti-virus application.
