Go to http://groups.aol.com. Authenticate with username=groupsbeta and password=mycommunity. The site has set three cookies which can be verified by using a sniffer. The cookies are: domain=aol.com, name=COOKIES_ON, path=/ host=ads.web.aol.com, name=badsc, path=link/7011708/... host=ads.web.aol.com, name=badsc, path=link/7011709/... Note that the second and third cookies have identical host, name, and nearly (but not quite) identical paths. I didn't think such a thing was possible/legal but apparently it is. Now go to cookie viewer. Only two of the three cookies are displayed. Attempt to do a "delete all" for the cookies. Only one gets deleted. The cookie viewer is totally confused at this point.
Good news is that I have the fix in hand and will check it in as soon as the M15 freeze is over. Problem was that I wasn't checking for non-identical paths when generating the cookie list for the cookie viewer and so I thought that the second and third cookies above were the same cookie.
