Cookie, cache, and bookmark managers

You may not realize it, but your browser is a veritable storehouse of information. Every third Web site gives you a cookie when you visit. You probably save your favorite URLs as bookmarks, and a cache file keeps track of where you've been. But maybe you don't want a cookie, or don't want other people using your computer to know where you've been surfing. That's why I've collected these handy-dandy apps to help you organize and manage all your browser information. From transferring bookmarks between different browsers to trashing your cache, there's something here for everyone. Think of it as a digital spring cleaning.
