I have an macbook pro and I'm running mavericks with kaspersky internet security as my antivirus. I have a suspicion that a website that I have ordered from before has putted tracking cookies on my computer. This item that I'm thinking of buying keeps on showing up limited quantity every time when I click on it. I pulled up the same webpage of the seller on my lenovo windows 7 laptop and it doesn't show limited quantity on that item. Do you think they have putted tracking cookies on my computer? Does kaspersky remove tracking cookies?

Their website and blog do not mention removing tracking cookies. Although it is possible for anti-malware software to distinguish between tracking cookies and other cookies, it is more common for people to simply remove all cookies using the browser's built-in option.
It is annoying to think about companies tracking your web activities, but it isn't dangerous.
MacScan can remove tracking cookies while leaving all other cookies untouched. The old version 2.6 is free, if you can find it.
