tabbs Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Skins (or shirts) aside, Paypal attempts to attach a cookie when you log in to CoinPeople. My browser lets me choose between these three options: "Accept cookies: Always / Never / Only from web sites that I visit (e.g. not from ads on these sites)" Usually the third option is what I use. In addition to that, I can view the cookies that I have, and remove any if I want to. Works fine for me. (A while ago I had a special Cookie Manager which was more flexible, but I do not use that any more.) Anyway, that cookie which Paypal apparently wants to set would not be accepted if your browser does not accept ad related cookies.

akdrv Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 I ran I quick test and I don't see any cookies set by PayPal when you just load a page. The board itself, however, sets cookies to track your last login, read topics, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlueke Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 The only way I get a Paypal cookie is if I click on the link. Loading the frontpage I get cookies from coinpeople, userplane, and google. Sometimes I clear out my cookies, but there's a lot more dangerous stuff out on the web.

gxseries Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Oddness, are you sure it's not CP's cookies? Paypal wouldn't attach a cookie unless you clicked on their homepage, link-related or actually opened one of those "fraud" junk mails... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28Plain Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 I use the retro as well. Retro is my thang, y'know. I have a '62 Plymouth and wear a pair of Rayban Wayfarers and a pair of Bal-o-Ramas I bought in '86. Don't try to tell me 'bout retro, or I'll show y'all my '77 Cadillac.
