    Is your computer slowing down? Have you cleared your computer browsers cache lately? The cache holds all the cookies for every website you have visited lately (or since the last time you cleaned out your cache). When you load a page and you are already logged in, that is because of a tracking cookie the website placed in your computer to make it easier for you. The problem is that not cleaning these cookies out can mess up your computer, so clearing them out everyday is preferable, but once a week is enough.
