HTTP cookies are required to be enabled to use the Web Feed Reader. This will place a very small text file on your hard drive that will not be used to identify you personally in any way. It is essentially an identification card, and cannot be executed as code or to deliver viruses. It is uniquely yours and can only be read by Web Feed Reader.
