The "details" list always shows one less cookie than the "total" pane says was found. I always choose to "fix" and "finish". Then I immediately run another scan which comes out fine. I am running Vista on a late model Toshiba Satellite. Is this normal behavior? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thank You and Bless YOU!!

Some tracking cookies can be malicious, even when they look legitimate (I could create a tracking cookie to record you passwords for example but call it "eBay" so that you wont delete it) - they can observe passwords, bank details etc. Are you sure that it is Norton that is being erroneous? Better being safe than sorry.

Maybe it deletes the file automatically?

I am not and never will be a lover of Nortons products. Can tell you that there are good tracking cookies, and there are bad tracking cookes. (My antispyware programs have to ability to sort out the good ones so they are remain, and allow the bad tracking cookies to be deleted).

Safe tracking cookies, are the ones that allow you to get back to your safe webpages that you have visisted faster. Bad tracking cookies, are adware, spyware that tracks your usage. Would not be concerned about tracking cookies.
