Or reduce functional problems with internet protocol. They are also useful by storing passwords or logins, credit card information, or just personal preferences.

"Web Bugs" are also discussed in this article. This means when seraching for pages online addvertisements or banners can pop up. You do not want to click these because sometimes web bugs could be hidden without you even knowing. They could also be used in E-mail as well, even when forwarding a message. The only thing you can do is be carefull because webbugs can be embedded in all of these things
