Default need "cookies" help on computer

I am trying to buy some designs from Kreativekiwidesigns, but in order to check out I need to turn my cookies on. Never have I had to do this so I am having a little issue as how to do this. I have an HP computer windows 8.1. Can anyone help me through this or is it worth it? I need some easy how too's. Thanks

Cookies allow any site you visit to track your computer. Are they worth it? Up to you but I hate getting unwanted advertisements or notices. No advice on how to disable a blocker.

You might want to call them and tell them that you block unwanted cookies. Maybe they can take your info over the phone.

I haven't done it in ages, but it isn't hard. You need to access the setting in "Tools". Here are the instructions for Windows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/i...okies#ie=ie-11

Tartan - I have never quite understood what cookies are and with your simple definition I "get it" now. Thank you so much.
