How NOT to delete an individual cookie

I am using IE 6.0 and Win XP. I manually delete all my cookies at the end
of each day, so that they will not accumulate. However, since there are two
which I do not want deleted, I must do this individually, which becomes
quite the task on some days.

Question: Is there a way that I can identify these two cookies so that they
will not be deleted if I use the "Delete Cookies" option on the General Tab
of Internet Options? This would make the job much easier. Better yet, is
there a way to have all cookies, except these two, deleted automatically
when exiting IE?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Why do you delete the cookies? They don't take much space and they are safe.

Go into the Internet Options and under Privacy, use the ADVANCED button to
disable third party cookies.
 
Thanks Grahammer:
I delete cookies because at one time I was told by a Microsoft tech rep that
I should do so, so that they do not accumulate and take up space on my hard
drive. At the time I had about 7,000 cookies on my drive and when I deleted
them I noticed an immediate change in the speed of my IE. Did I
misunderstand? I appreciate your comments, but I still do not understand
how I can retain just one or two cookies and have the others deleted
automatically using the Internet Tools option. Can you comment further?
Thanks
