I just got a Macbook (an apple), and I'm worried. My brother took my other computer, and I had been looking at porn. I deleted the history. Just now I was searching threw my setting and other thing and I came across "Cookies." I clicked it and it's checked on "Only from sites you navigate to..for ex.. not from advertisers on those sites." I clicked "Show Cookies," and it showed these porn websites. Apperntly they had cookies. My brother was complaining about my old computer being so slow, and not to mess with it.. that he's going to take it to his appartment and fix it. I'm afraid he's going to look in cookies or something. Do you have any idea for me what to do? I can't go to that computer at all.

He probably won't look at cookies, it's not something that slows the computer down. The list of cookies could have thousands of entries, so I doubt he'll see anything you don't want him to, even if he looks at them. [ theymos's advice column | Ask theymos A Question ]
