Spyware

[John Seth]

It might be a bit tedious, but when I'm running Mozilla I go through my
cookies manually using the Cookie Manager. If I don't remember or know the
domain name for the cookie, or no longer want it, I delete it.

You can check it out if you want:
Tools -> Cookie Manager -> Manage Stored Cookies
