Cookies are "Flat Text" files. Usually, if you type them to screen or
edit with notepad you'll see the URL embedded in them that placed
the Cookie.

Using "Open" on a Cookie will trigger a security warning.

I've just found this xx@~~local~~[2].txt in the cookies folder.

Seen them before. Where do they come from?

JSP




I know what cookies are and i frequently go into the cookies folder
looking for candidates for the 'Privacy/sites' list.

I assume that Windows puts these 'local' cookies in the cookies
folder, but i don't know under what conditions.

Does Windows put these 'local' cookies into the cookies folder?

Why are these 'local' cookies put in the cookies folder?

JSP
