Subject: Cookies
Yeah, Kat, that's the trouble with rejecting cookies. If you set your browser to reject all cookies, you eliminate the good ones like the tasty chocolate-chip Mudcat cookie, along with all the obnoxious ones. I have a sneaky work-around, though. I use MSIE as my browser of choice, and I use it only for Mudcat and other sites I trust. When I want to go wandering, I use Netscape. If my Netscape picks up cookies I don't like, it doesn't matter, because I regularly clean out all the cookies from my Netscape cache. In the past, I had conflicts caused by using earlier versions of both MSIE and Netscape on the same computer, but the newer versions of both browsers seem to have resolved those conflict problems quite nicely, and I can even use both browsers at the same time without any conflict at all. Now, if we get to the point where Netscape and MSIE share the same cookies, my workaround won't work so well. -Joe Offer-
