Publisher's description
(From The Limit Software ):Many Web sites place electronic tags--called cookies--on your computer. Although cookies cannot damage your computer, they can assist site operators in profiling your surfing habits. Cookie Crusher acts as a real-time cookie manager giving you complete control over cookies and your privacy. Cookie Crusher transparently accepts or rejects cookies from Web sites, as well as classifies incoming cookies and labels their purpose. You can add sites or individual cookies from a Web site to filter lists for automated cookie handling. Cookie Crusher permits wildcard use for added convenience. Cookies received from new Web sites can be accepted or rejected without any interaction based on classification or expiration date; the program can also prompt you for confirmation. Cookie Crusher keeps a detailed list of cookies handled during the current session and allows you to analyze and delete saved cookies. Cookie Crusher is compatible with virtually any Internet browser including Internet Explorer v5.0+, Netscape v4.x+, Mozilla v1.x+ and America Online.
Version 3.2 enables users to modify most cookies and make them session-only, allowing them to access Web sites that require cookies without having them stored on your computer, blocks referrer fields from being passed between Web sites, thus restricting a site from knowing how you arrived.

Version: Cookie Crusher 3.2
Summary: Privacy invasive cookies really bug me so I set out on a quest to find the best cookie manager. Having tried quite a few (all found here in the download.com archives) I've come to the conclusion that total "perfection" isn't likely to be found. Rath... read more >>

Version: Cookie Crusher 3.2
"Cookies, Cookies , Everywhere"

Version: Cookie Crusher 3.2
Summary: I uninstalled this program and now my Internet explorer is not functioning and won't load pages.

Version: Cookie Crusher 3.2
"needs 20MB .Net update on your PC"
Summary: Can't be bothered. Requires .Net framework installed on my PC -- so a 373k download needs a 20MB monster download from Microsoft just to install this little program. What is wrong with a simple self extracting executable?

Version: Cookie Crusher 3.2
"Excellent program, just what I was looking for!"
Summary: I was really impressed with this product. The interface was straightforward and it worked with my AOL account (don't ask). I also use Mozilla, and this is one of the few managers I have found that is compatible with everything I use.
