Re: IE .reg file to STOP SPYWARE COOKIES

Registry Location of .reg file

You might be wondering, where is the .reg file acually kept in registry. Well, to answer this, read below and you will see.

For advanced users:

Start -> run -> regedit

Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
->Software
--->Microsoft
---->Windows
----->Current Version
------>Internet Settings
------->P3P
-------->History
--------->|...
--------->|...
--------->|...


For beginner users or mediocre users:

Warning: Using the registry and making modifications in the wrong place, deleting things, or playing around if you do not know what you are doing can be detremental to the health of your PC, and can really screw it up, even to the point of total failure, be VERY careful with this...

Step 1:
You will need to start the registry viewer/editor
Click on the "Start" button and "choose" Run command. Type "regedit" and hit "enter" on the keyboard. A new window will open up. You will see little plus denotations just like in Windows Explorer when you navigate through folders and sub-folders. You will need to click on these to navigate through the hierarchy to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
->Software
--->Microsoft
---->Windows
----->Current Version
------>Internet Settings
------->P3P
-------->History
--------->|...
--------->|...
--------->|...
--------->|...
--------->|...

Step 2:
Just keep clicking the "+" sign until you get there and under the last step "History" you will see the long list of entries that Internet Explorer uses. I placed three dots where the listing starts.


It might be a fun thing to know or see for some of you, but be careful, don't poke around too much unles syou really know what you are doing.
