Tracking cookies aren't a big deal, so my advice is to just not worry about it.

If you do worry over it, try using a browser that has built-in privacy features that deletes all your session cookies when you quit out of it.

>cough< FIREFOX! (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/upgrade.html) >cough<

...But then you must EXIT OUT OF YOUR BROWSER from time-to-time, too! (Which you're probably NOT doing now, which is why the cookie stays there...)
