I have this code in one of my scripts,

cookiesOn = navigator.cookieEnabled;

and no matter what I do in the Internet Explorer settings, it always returns true. I have put the privacy setting up to the top which says it should "block all cookies". I have tried overriding automatic cookie handling. Ive also tried restarting with the new settings to see if that works.

Im using WinXP Pro with IE6, are there any options I have missed?

The only thing I can think of is that its because the script is on my local machine, but I cant see how that should affect it.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks.

The IE privacy tab affects only the Internet zone, so it is not affected because it is on the local machine. You will probably need to upload the file to the net to test it.
