How to Remove Doubleclick From Web Pages
Doubleclick is a cookie that is designed to monitor and record Internet activity. The information is then sent to a parent company and used to generate targeted advertisements. For example, if you view a web page about hiking and a web page about dogs, you may be sent an unsolicited pop-up advertisement concerning hiking gear for dogs. If you prefer more privacy than Doubleclick allows, you can remove Doubleclick from your computer.
