You can Google Intel(R) HD Graphics Family and find the download page https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/products/80939/graphics-drivers.html, but you may have to know what generation chipset you are using. CPU-Z would tell you this https://www.cpuid.com/ Can also try : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/detect.html Old & corrupted Drivers cause a wide range of issues.

They are called forever cookies. As you can see why. They can also be Flash Cookies and the only way to control cookies is to use ad-blockers such as uBlock Origin, Ghostery and forcing sites to use Https with HttpsEverywhere. SuperAntiSpyware is a good way to get rid of tracking cookies (does not need to startup at boot) as are 3rd party cleaners. These types of cookies can go to your Temp folder also then repopulate when delete so should use Microsoft Disk Cleanup to cleanup Temp files or other 3rd party programs. https://senk9.wordpress.com/checklists/adblocking-definitively-measured/
