    2. I'm pretty sure a tracking cookie is not a virus.
    1. If you look in there Privacy thing it says they put cookies on your computer
    2. It's not a virus it's spyware

    I know as I've scanned my computer, delete all spyware then gone on habbo and scanned again and had this cookie

    They would not be harmful though, and I don't think 'tracking' cookie is the right type. I may be wrong, but why would they use a tracking cookie? I thought that was where they can take your cookies which means passwords etc.. but that might be another name... I'm not sure.

    Perhaps they are tracking cookies, but they are only to trace people who break the law such as by hacking Habbo Hotel. They are not harmful though.

    spyware, adware and tracking cookies are mostly harmless all they do is collect information of what sites you go on, but harmless or not they are pests and should be removed, keyloggers the most dangous to habbo uses because it can get you passwords.

    spysweeper will remove all these

    Sorry for the late reply, but keyloggers are a type of spyware.

    I use Spybot - Search and Destroy and I have lots of tracking cookies - they show up as virsues but they dont actually do anything, I've had them for months.

    If you have a packet sniffer on your PC it may show up as a Trojan. Just so you don't worry.
