deleting cookies and computer speed?

[alwaysondbigscreen]

I have been told I need to delete my "cookies" every now and then or it will really slow down the computer. Well my computer is slower than normal and I have defraged and disk cleaned but cannot figure out how to delete the cookies. Do I need to and if so how? thanks

Tools - Internet Options - Delete Cookies                                                                                                                                   

Thats how I do it anyway.
