Comment by English teacher ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />Actually, the sentence should read: "Which means, essentially, that a website can only get from a cookie(,) information it put there in the first place.<br />

Comment by Juni ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />I like the clarification about cookies ...but as you mentioned cookies are stored in plaintext...and they might even contain private information about the user,how about encrypting the ones with private information??? Will that be much of cost??

Comment by Passer Thru ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />*sigh*..the sentence is gramatically correctly. Just missing some punctuation. <br /> <br />Which means, essentially, that a website can only get from a cookie(,) information(,) it put there in the first place. <br /> <br />Anyways..enough about that. Good article. Thanks

Comment by Master ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />If thats correctly written the "a" shouldn't exist after "can only get from".

Comment by Hugo Jackson ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />Page 1, Paragraph 5 states: <br /> <br />"Which means, essentially, that a website can only get from a cookie information it put there in the first place." <br /> <br />I'm pretty sure you meant to have the word "information" about 3 places back in that sentence.

Comment by Edward ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />I clicked on view files on IE and only found 3 files. It does not make a lot of sense as there are only maximum 3 cookies? <br /> <br />And how can I locate the google cookie? <br /> <br /> <br />thank you

Comment by donaldmseib@aol.com ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />Some sites now refuse to open up unless you enable cookies. one is the aol help site, which made it very frustrating to find out how to turn cookies back on.

Comment by bill richardson ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />Can a corrupt cookie prevent access to a web site? <br /> <br /> <br />Can we delete cookies and then gain access to a web site that was not possible before we deleted the cookies?
