I have the same problem with shopping.com. I get different pages
when a cookie is present than when I gobble my shopping.com cookies.
I know very little about cookies and what they arre supposed to do.
I don't know if my username and password at shopping.com is somehow
encoded in the cookie. Any info would be appreciated. Thanx.
