Manually. Go to the Cookies folder in your default location and delete the ones not needed
 
You can do this manually by going to C:\Documents and Settings\<user
name>\Cookies, and while holding CTRL, click on the couple of cookies you
want to keep, click Edit...Invert selection, then File...Delete.

However, this is a labor-intensive way to keep those very few special
cookies for sites that you want to keep - cookies that contain site
customizations, usernames/passwords, etc. The easiest way to do this is
with third-party software that will clean your unwanted cookies save for the
few you want to keep:
