Ilja- Yes, it is possible to have the cookies not be blocked, but the third party site that is serving the cookie *must* have a P3P Privacy policy + a compact privacy policy in place. Depending on the type of information that you are collecting, the privacy policy should allow the third party cookie to be served and not be blocked. The background: if you are serving a third-party cookie in an iFrame, there is no real way that the average user can know that information is being collected about them. With P3P in Internet Explorer and other browsers, such information is blocked unless the third party serving the cookie also give a machine-readable, P3P privacy policy and compact privacy policy to the end user's computer.

Other web site wants to set a session cookie. By default settings of IE third party cookies are blocked, so this little "privacy report" sign appears at the bottom of browser window. Question is: is it possible to avoid cookies to be blocked by using P3P policy? And if it is possible, could you give brief info on this? Thx in advance
