in the coookie manager i have rejected all third parties yet some third parties
still show up.  i originally had all first party cookies set as flag, but i
found that it wasn't flagging them for my approval i put it on reject for all
catagories.  then i would go any site and it would still allow sites to come
through.  although i went to the bestbuy site and it wouldn't go.  the manager
does however work for the cookies that i manually add.  this goes for the xp
version of this, and this wasn't the case for 1.4, and 1.5 for linux and windows.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. just go to a site, say like hardocp and it will leave a cookie
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
it will leave a cookie

Expected Results:  
not leave a cookie

no boxes come saying anything, and the websites don't complain either

what sites are in the contents of your Cookie Sites tab?  sites that are allowed
to set cookies will always be allowed to set cookies regardless of prefs.
