We received a Warning Alert that Microssoft (or
Expolorer?) had run a simple test and detected a 'tracking
software' on our computer. It states there is a cookie
installed on our computer that allows on-line tracking of
all our computer activity. There is a link to download a
free scanner which will remove all spy programs. Is this
a legitimate warning that we need to follow-up on?

Thank You!

floppy to study?
