Re: Removing cookies from hardisk.
That depends on what web browser you have. I'm assuming that you are using Internet Explorer 6.

From the pull down menu select Tools | Internet Options | Delete Cookies (button).

If you want to change your browser settings to never create cookies go to the Privacy tab, Click Advanced. Check the Override Automatic Cookie Handling box. Choose Block First Party Cookies. Choose Block Third Party Cookies. Click OK.
