Re: cookies

Go into windows explorer and look for a folder with your login id and under your login there should be a folder called cookies. Look in there and try and find the cookie.

I cant give you the exact folder location because Im not on a XP machine right now.

good luck

Re: cookies

How about you try removing all cookies? What are you trying to do? Got spyware?

Re: cookies

i have so many sites that i visit everyday i dont feel like going thru them all and logging back in. no spyware i just want to remove cookies for one of them as a matter of privacy from the other people that use this computer.

Re: cookies

Was about to recommend you delve into the cookies.txt file where all of them are stored, but that doesn't seem to be recommended.

How about you try these FF extensions that let you manipulate cookies?

Odd that my first suggestion didn't work though, it does exactly what you want.
