Speaking of FaceBook, there was a guy on the local talk show who said FB tracking files were in his TurboTax program files. Has anyone had that problem? I don’t have FB.

evidently they use a tracking cookie that can report on the sites you visit - even if you are not on the fb site

i have a dedicated pc for fb to avoid all of fb’s little nastiness

i’m told you can use a dedicated browser to accomplish the same thing - for example, if you use firefox as your browser, you could download chrome and use it for fb and nothing else - or internet explorer
