Instructions to turn off cookies should the user want to in Internet Explorer. I do not know what the 'look-in' box is. Any help would be appreciated it.

You can easily delete any cookies that have been installed in the cookie folder of your browser. For example, if you are using Microsoft Windows Explorer:
• open 'Windows Explorer'
• click on the 'Search' button on the tool bar
• type "cookie" into the search box for 'Folders and Files'
• select 'My Computer' in the 'Look In' box
• click 'Search Now' Double click on the folders that are found
• 'Select' any cookie file
• hit the 'Delete' button on your keyboard

campo de "Buscar en:"

When you use the search function in Windows, you go to:

"Búsqueda"

Then you get some options. You are asked where you want to search. One option corresponds to 'Folders and Files' on your list:

"Todos los archivos y carpetas"

Then you can further specify where you want to look. In the English version there is a box with "Look in:" written above it. In this box you can specify if you want to search My Documents, My Pictures, or another folder. In Spanish this box has "Buscar en:" written above it.

I'm trying to find a website with some screengrabs because a picture will make it much clearer than my explanation!

¡Aquí! If you go here you will see some great screengrabs which show the process I've tried to describe and the "Buscar en:" box clearly:
