Wouldn't it be simpler?

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Have Not Tried

The idea for cookie managers is great, but wouldn't it be simpler just to build in Preferences to Safari than to have a separate and external program? Safari already has a Preference to "Accept Cookies: Never."

All that is needed are two tweaks: (1) Always allow such as *apple.com; and (2) Always allow and Dump at end of session domains such as *yahoo.com (for mail).

I'm no programmer, but I think an app. for developers, "SIMBL" already makes modifying Preferences easy. I use Saft and Pithhelmet which use that.

Wouldn't it be simpler? - Theodoric

Maybe with some browsers. But IE won't let you delete certain cookies. Try it. Cookie Dog makes it possible to delete the ones IE can't bear to part with.
