Why won't Webwasher stop Coremetrics Cookies? I'm using Internet Explorer 6. It won't stop Coremetrics cookies either. The Coremetrics opt out is a joke; it dsoes not stop the Coremetrics cookies either. Help!

Find out which Web sites are sending you the cookie and quit going to those web sites.
Clear cookies, visit one site, check for that cookie. Try another web site, and check again. When you find the web site, either quit visiting it or put it in IE's restricted zone.

A firewall would be a good idea, too.
