I use CCleaner (ccsetup218_slim.exe) quite often. For the last few days, after I installed IE8 I think, CCleaner seems to delete all cookies - even the ones in the Options -> Cookies -> 'Cookies to keep' list.

I have to login at all the forums I visit. Pain.
 
Let me first state that which is mandatory. Use Firefox!! or Opera!! :rofl:

Now on to your question. Have you tried a complete reinstall of ccleaner yet? After uninstalling make sure that ccleaner does not leave behind a directory. It may be that the settings are stuck for some reason.

If this does not work raise a bug on ccleaner website and hope that they fix it.
 
Emptied the 'Cookies to keep' list, ran CCleaner, repopulated the 'Cookies to keep' list. Working OK now.

I've been told that, many times. I'm so used to Maxthon v1, can't imagine using anything else.

This is what I read at another site :
The temporary fix seems to be to uncheck the box in CC next to Index.dat files, in Windows tab, under Internet Explorer.
(IE8 cookies are in C:\Documents and Settings\{User ID}\Cookies\index.dat)
