CCleaner works just FINE here. I can select which ones I want to keep
and the rest are gone.

Alja,

The free program CCleaner has a great cookie manager (Options, Cookies)
feature in it, and can delete (Cleaner option) all of the cookies to.
You might give it a try.

'CCleaner - Home' (http://www.ccleaner.com/)
