DblClick not only tracks you with cookies they also track you with your IP number..so keeping the cookies off is only part of it.
Anyone can do a search and find out how the company started..the trouble they've been in and the changes they have had to make. The latest thing is being bought by Google and its being protested by some pretty major companies.
BTW.. It's a pain until you get used to it..but your browser lets you be the final judge of the cookies allowed on your HD.
I keep mine set to always accecpt session cookies and never allow 3rd party cookies and on every page I go to I can allow a cookie from them or not..and I can choose to always allow a cookie from a certain place (like here) or I can permanently block a cookie from any site I don't trust and they can't put it on my PC after that.
Its all in your internet settings on your browser.
(afterthought)
At any given time I only have between 10 and 15 cookies on my machine. I keep a check and take off anything I don't want on a regular basis.
