Enumerating all persistent cookies

[Matt Campbell]

Hello:

What is the best way to enumerate all persistent cookies stored by
wininet for the current user? Does one have to traverse the Cookies
directory and parse the files, or does WinInet provide an easier way?

Thanks,
Matt

FindFirstURLCacheEntry/FindNextURLCacheEntry. I found that passing
"cookie:" as the search pattern didn't work, so I just went through them
all and checked lpCacheEntry->CacheEntryType & COOKIE_CACHE_ENTRY.

That gets you the files on disk, parsing them from there is up to you --
http://seclists.org/basics/2006/Mar/0427.html has a starting point, and I
did use Galleta for more info.
