AFAIK Cookies are merely 'calling cards' that are left on your computer so
that if you visit the site again, they know who you are and that you've been
there before! However, in an overly complex Microsoft dominated world, who
knows? There's a little known thingy called 'userdata persistence' in IE5
that does a similar thing........so I'm told. You can disable it but of
course, you have to know about it first!
