Thanks for response. What you say may be true about GF using its own os, but I found the conflict to be present after every time I ran CC but I was able to correct the issues. Also, does the browser clean up in Avast let you choose which ones to keep. Some I do want to keep and CC allowed that option. By the ones to keep I am referring again to cookies. Also, I use a bookmarks bar in Chrome - if this browser clean up utility wiped that out, I would be mightily upset Thanks again.
