Default Tracking Cookie

This is bananas.org-related but not banana-related so I don't know if it belongs in another forum. I just wanted to see if anyone else has this problem. My virus scanner keeps detecting a tracking cookie when I visit this web site. I keep having it removed and quarantined, but it always comes back. I've changed my privacy levels in my Internet Options to see if that helps. I first noticed it when I saw pictures of items that I had purchased on Overstock.com show up in the Internet advertising box here at bananas.org. I didn't know if it was Overstock.com putting the tracking cookie on my computer or Bananas.org doing it. It's really no big deal because it is not harmful or anything, but it is a bit of a privacy issue. Anyone else notice this?

Thanks, Greg. I think it is Overstock.com that is doing it because I just visited a third web site, and Overstock is there too. I've taken steps to block them.
