Mozilla allows one to refuse cookies - on the surface -
They are not put in the cookie files....
But they ARE put in a *hostperm.1* file in documents and settings under Mozilla - even if you deny them access to your pc!!!!!
Mighty damned sneaky, I'd say....
And most are totally unaware of this intrusion!!!!!!!!!!!!

My error!
Thanks.....
