Any cookie you didn't make an effort to get (sign-up), you should be killing off immediately. A tool:

*-user-agent ...or is it actually *using* something that Internet Exploder has (ActiveX)?

Thanks! I should have thought of clearing the cookies... there's nothing there but the Girl scout stuff anyway, she normally uses Firefox.

No, you can only save cookies until the cookie monster breaks in. Frozen Thin Mints - a cookie from heaven!

I was neighborhood cookie manager this year... netted $192,154.75 to the Girl Scout coffers ;-)
