Not wanting to have cookies enabled does not make you paranoid, but that doesn't mean that you aren't. ;-} Since a lot of sites do offer content that relies on cookies to work and there is some convenience factor involved in having cookies, I do enable them on my machine but have Opera discard them after each browser session. That way, I gain the convenience of having the content and session persistence that cookies deliver but at the same time, there is no possibility of long-term tracking of my surfing habits. I consider it a moderate middle-road. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
