Hello,
I recently installed Disconnect, the privacy and security software that prevents web browser activity from being tracked. The following problem is occurring in IE but not in Chrome. I assume Disconnect arrests tracking cookies on the fly, preventing the site from getting a foothold on your pc and tracking your browser activity. An interesting (and annoying) side effect is that now DownloadStudio is prompting me on every cookie to confirm/cancel to download it!
For example, on any eBay page (not to mention many other pages), these DownloadStudio "Add Job" prompts easily adds up to 4+ prompt-window pop-ups alone on every new page, each needing to be canceled before the page will load!
Please note that as of yet, I do not want to turn off cookies all together, as they are useful on some sites. My I.E. settings are to block third-party cookies and accept first-party cookies, so I am not sure what cookies these are.
The following are a few examples what is popping up in the "Add Job" window of DownloadStudio when trying to load various web pages:
