Clearly the above scenario is not a violation of self: however it is of no possible __benefit__ to me (the point of cookies) and could concievably be used for targetted marketing etc if the the info ever got married up with any of my pid. Bottom line: I do not think I should be sent cookies unless they are for my benefit eg user preferences.
Question: if flycast are innocent why have I just found a flycast cookie in my file? What possible innocent use is it to anybody?
Another question: anybody used CutTheCrap (filter proxy)? I have it installed & I thought it was working (don't know how old the cookies are). Any reason to trade it for junkbuster which seems to be the favourite here?

Does java offer seamless cross-platform support for crashing browsers, or is this a netscape specific feature? Anyone know?
