Not all browsers can disable cookies for specific sites.

This would stop WWWOFFLE sending any cookies back to Google even
though your browser may become full of them.

This would not stop Javascript based cookie setting. The only thing
that WWWOFFLE can do for this is to disable scripts as Dan suggested
in the original e-mail.

If the Javascript is there to set a cookie then putting a copy of the
form on another web page would fix it.

I don't get the Javascript with google.co.uk, perhaps it is different
on different versions of Google. I don't know what it is doing, but I
run with scripts disabled by WWWOFFLE by default anyway.
