Think the servlet APIs like response.addCookie() etc ... might be helpful here. You can send couple of cookies in your response header, the browser will store these cookies permanently in harddisk.

One of the reasons I'd like to know is to see the behavior of method isNew() of HttpSession, which I can do if I'm able to disable cookies. As the Javadoc for HttpSession says: "A servlet should be able to handle cases in which the client does not choose to join a session, such as when cookies are intentionally turned off."
