- First, let's configure the options, you will not need to do this every time.
- Go to Options and find the Cookies page:

- In the Cookies to delete column, select the names of any web sites that you use frequently (hold down the Ctrl key to select more than one). Points2Shop.com is a good choice.
- Press the -> button between the two lists to move these sites to the Cookies to keep list. Now these specific cookies will be preserved.
Now click the Cleaner button and ensure that "Cookies" is checked under Internet Explorer. Firefox and other browsers will appear on the Applications tab, make sure their Cookies entries are checked as well.- I suggest checking Cookies, Download History, and Internet Cache.
- If you use the browser a lot you probably do not want to check History or Saved Form Information.
- Close your web browsers to ensure that everything can be cleaned.
- Click the Run Cleaner button and wait for the CLEANING COMPLETE message.
