What Are Cookies?
Cookies are a little pieces of information that the website stores on your computer. There is no risk of computer viruses or of anyone hacking your computer. They are simply small pieces of text that one page can save, and that can then be read back by other pages. For example, when you log in to websites the login page makes a note that you've entered the correct details. When you visit other pages, they read this note so you don't have to keep on logging in.

If you don't want to accept cookies from websites you'll need to change one of the settings in your browser. Don't forget that if you do this some websites may not work correctly.
