Cookie Question (computers)

Recommended Posts

  Quote

I checked my email on someone else's computer. The email program will sometimes "cookie" the computer to remember you.

I don't want this person in my email or dz.com account. Will changing my password make the cookie on their computer not work?



yes.....if you happened to leave checked (remember my username and password) than it will try to use those that you entered while on their machine. If you change it on the websites themselves, that password will no longer be valid.

Just change your password on the computer you're on right now. New password, no problem.

If you checked the 'remember me' box on the login page, then yes, they would be able to access it, and yes changing the password should solve it. If you didn't do that, then as soon as the browser is closed, all cookies for the site should be cleared, so there are no problems.
