Re: [fwd] IE 6.0 and P3P Policies Problems with Cookies

Hi Rigo,

It is not sufficient to provide the full P3P policy for the cookies without supplying
the Compact Policy when setting cookies in IE6.0.  You need to provide a P3P
compact policy header when u r setting cookies on IE6.0 in order to make your site
P3P compliant on IE6.0.

Thanks,
Sara
