cookies won't go away

[coatss]

I am using IE under Mac OS X and I go into Preferences and Cookies, select all and click Delete, exit IE and go back in ...

AND THEY ARE ALL THERE AGAIN.

I cannot seem to find a folder on the hard drive containing this info so I can delete it... can anyone help?

Do you have entourage running? They don't work well together.. basically what happens is any changes you make in IE, as soon as Entourage looks for mail or actually gets mail, I cant remember, it reverts IE back to the "saved" profile. It was a huge pain and that's why I quite using IE.

I don't have Entourage running, but I do have Mail open. Nothing else.

Wow hmm.. no clue.. use a different browser? Seriously Microsoft has dumped production of IE so there will be no more new versions.. might as well make the transission.

Really? That is a surprise. This is my work computer and there are a few applications that Safari just won't work with or I'd use that more often.

I have a call in to tech support. I just didn't really want them looking at my cookies.

Yeah I don't even use Safari anymore. Now I use Firebird and it has a whole webmaster suite that I am really enjoying, plus overrall it does a better job then safari does. I would really like to use Safari because it has certain things, like autofill, that I like that Firebird does not have, but until they update it.. Firebird is my browser of choice.
