Often when I visiting sites on the internet, I will read 'we use cookies, if your computer is barred from accepting cookies, please undo'. Can someone tell me what is a cookie, and should I accept sites that use them.? Will really appreciate some info on this one.

A cookie is a specific message or setting saved to your computer by a web site. They aren't always bad. Most save specific settings, such as sports sites that remember your favorite teams and put those toward the top.
Other's however, share some of your personal information and those are the ones you need to worry about.

Cookie is a program that remembers the sites you have visited. They are important in some ways but most of the scam websites are using them to get inside private accounts. Be careful
