None of my websites do.
Too bad it wasnt Microsoft...its a Sun os. ;) Sun and their evil ways... lol
If your websites dont have cookies...then it doesnt do anything cool to necessitate them. ;)
Hmmmm?? Then why are there cookies from JCPenney on my computer when I haven't been to their website ..??
Umm... you may not have known it but websites have frames and other jazzy things going on. An iframe could have placed it when you were at some other marketplace.
Advertisements are famous for their iframes and such.
But none of the sites I went to had any connection to JCPenney .. but I suppose that may not matter ..??
But .. some days I don't go to any websites - I'm busy working on Word or Excel - then what .. where do the cookies come from then - because I check it everyday before I turn off my computer.
I haven't been "cool" since I was a teenager 40 years ago.
Big deal The MSM Web Site's have been placings 'Crockies' on Computers for years
The NSA has been running IIS for a while. And it seems a bit stupid to run Sun in the back and use IIS as a proxy.
Im a professional web developer, Im just telling you how cookies work. They arent set by emails unless you use an online email service such as Yahoo or hotmail and use your web browser to view them. Then the advertisements could set cookies.
If you have cookies popping up on your computer without EVER using the internet, you might want to run a scan using microsofts anti-spyware utility (works fantastic regardless of what haters say). Cookies dont just pop up out of nowhere and cant be set in an email client like outlook (unless you have security set to nonexistent).
The session cookie being set is a JSESSION cookie which is a java language sun web server cookie. Just sayin.
You dont have to be cool to offer something cool. :D Im a glowing model of that! lol
I run ad-aware every day. 20-40 are removed every time.
They're running Cold Fusion, which runs off of the Java platform, in this case on Windows. I'm betting what they did is upgrade Cold Fusion, and the new install turned cookies on.
Ah...im an ASP.net man myself which leads me to the ignorance of which platform they are using exactly. Thanks. I knew it was java of some sort. Do you have some intimate knowledge of their web dept or something?
I'm more concerned about the cookies placed by any member of the MSM like the NY Slimes if I stray into their site.
Twice a day, I use SBC/Yahoo's new cookie spotter and remove all new cookies. My computer runs much better.
The worse offender was AOL going back years when I was an AOL customer and used their so called free cds for AOL updates. Lets see AOL is owned by Time Warner which also ownes Slime Pseudo News and CNN.
What we have here is a simple oops being amplified by a moronic vulture like press pouncing on deadend stories in hopes of catching the evil Bush govt red handed.
That statute is somewhat illogical however. Cookies are largely harmless and can serve a fine purpose. To limit a web site from using them limits the user's possible experience (if they desire to have one of course).
This creep pseudo writer spends most of its time penning articles pushing the Gay agenda.
What a surprise! Below is the link of Anick Jesdanun + Gay:

Didn't they change the cookie monster to the brocolli monster or some PC silly thing like that?
