Tracks by cookies. Ergo, the cookie is at home, but not at the cafe.

haha, he could put them on a 3 1/2 floppy and carry them around until he needs to inject them into a browser folder.

mail your cookie to yourself at any mailaddress you can reach from anywhere when needed and use the floppy as handy cash

cash = removable offline storage space (floppies, cd-rw, thumbdrives, portable hd's etc.)
check = online storage space (mail, servers & whatnot)

You know it would be a lot easier if you just didn't use explorer

well i spent 3 months disassembling and patching all (i think) the security issues in ie

it took me a lot of time and effort so im gonna be stubborn and use the pile of steaming crap till i feel i can let go and throw it all away

i suppoze i could go back into the code and fix the cookies

that would be nice but not possible as the cafe only has sucky terminals (no drives)
