Cookie Assassin ReviewHuh? - Version: 1.0, 12/3/2006 01:36PM PST

I don't know what you're talking about. The developer has been one of the friendliest, most responsive that I've ever dealt with.

And I love the product. It's definitely better than Safari's built-in Cookie manager by a long shot. I especially like how all of the Cookies are grouped by domain. It makes it very easy to delete a whole website's worth of cookies rather than having to search for all of them.

Cookie Assassin ReviewWarning: do not consider Cookie Assassin - Version: 1.0, 9/10/2006 03:28PM PST

I agree with other reviewers that this has the makings of a good product.

But to use after the ten day trial period, you need a key.

This the vendor failed to provide - despite about a dozen attempts to contact him by emails (to four addresses; several were rejected) via PayPal (with whom I had to open a resolution and then a complaint) - and the product cannot be used.

Although the vendor asks a small price, not to respond at all to attempts to get a working key suggests they are no longer in business.

Suggest looking for an alternative.

Cookie Assassin Troubleshooting ReportLooks really good - Version: 1.0, 9/3/2006 09:50PM PST

I'm looking forward to using the paid product (I did the research and agree, it looks like the best) but cannot get the License key (I've had four sent so far) to work. I keep getting the error in red, "There was an error reading your license."

Anyone else?
