Is there a way to delete a single cookie for the website I'm currently
on? I allowed the site to set a cookie a while back but I can't find
it in the Temporary Internet files.

Or is the only option to delete all cookies?

Thanks,
Brett
 
Hi Brett :-)

You don't mention the version of Windows you are using, which really is a
must when asking for help in the newsgroups, but, try the following and see
if it helps:

Go to IE>Tools>Internet Options>General tab
Under the Temporary Internet Files click the Delete Cookies tab
Close IE and then reopen IE
Go back to the Temporary Internet Files on the General tab, and then
Settings tab next to Delete Files>click View Settings
See if there are any cookies files still there. If so, scroll down the list
and see if the one you want to remove is there and delete it.

If that does not work, then do the following:

This will open the Cookies folder of whoever is logged on.

Copy and paste the following in the Start>Run box:

%HOMEPATH%\Cookies

Click OK or hit your Enter key

You can then review the list and delete the one that you don't want.

Hope this helps.
