actually cookies are totaly supported by MSIE as in Netscape
basically cookie is a small text file with some info a browser can save 9if
you enable it)
in a certain place on your HD
this can serve to save information like preferences,passwords etc.
it is considered a "security issue" because the remote host (via html,JS
etc.) writes and reads data from your HD
but I (at least) don't know of any security holes in handling cookies (ie
using the cookies mechanism to read or write other parts of your HD) but I
might be wrong <eg>
