PS To give you a sense of the dark power, look what snooper.js bookmark, named Snoop Test does, and it give specifics on cookies of every page you visit:
Code: [Select]
javascript:(function(){var s=document.createElement("script"); s.src="http://www.hunlock.com/examples/snooper.js"; document.body.appendChild(s);})();
