[twitter-dev] Search API issue involving server cookies

2010-08-05 Thread Mike Ward 
There appears to be an issue with Twitter's API and cookies. The
following yields no results found:

Issue the same request without the cookies and search returns expected
results.

I can't remove the cookies since they're server issued (I'm running in
a browser). Is there a workaround?
