Internet Tips:Zap Your Google Cookie G-Zapper helps you stay anonymous while searching Google.

G-Zapper is compatible with Windows 95,98,ME,NT,2000,XP,Vista. G-Zapper requires Microsoft Internet Explorer 5, 6, 7 or Mozilla Firefox 1.5, 2.0, 3.0. Compatible with Gmail, Adsense, and other Google services.

Did you know that Google stores a unique identifier in a cookie on your PC, which allows them to track the keywords you search for? They use this information to compile reports, track user habits, and test features. In the future, it is possible they could even sell this information or share it with
others. Even worse, Google's cookie isn't set to expire until the year 2038, unless you delete it first.

G-Zapper helps protect your identity and search history. G-Zapper will read the Google cookie installed on your PC, display the date it was installed, determine how long your searches have been tracked, and display your Google searches. G-Zapper allows you to automatically delete or entirely block the Google search cookie from future installation.

If you're like me, you worry that Google is compiling a complex psychological profile based on your accumulated search requests. ("Mr. Spanbauer, you display inordinate interest in Chuck Norris, potato guns, and self-hypnosis. We have alerted the authorities.") Luckily for all of us, Ksoft's free G-Zapper utility cleans the information that identifies you uniquely out of the Google cookie, thereby protecting your privacy. So take off that tinfoil hat and download G-Zapper.
