Hello,
is there any name conformity how IE names cookie files for certain URL
(domain?) ?
I get all cookies with InterenetGetCookie und I will know if
persistent cookies are among them.
How can I find a specified cookie file (if the cookie folder is alredy
known)?

Thanks in advance!

Analyze the structure of cookie file "by hands". Since it is not documented,
you will have some headche, also keep in mind that in next version of OS the
structure might be changed.

Thank you for answer.
I have no problem with cookie structure. I will just know what name
have a cookie file for a certain domain.
E.g. url is "www.somesite.com/info". Is there any convention what name
will have a cookie file?

No, there is not. But the domain url shlould be stored inside the cookie
file(in plain text), if I recall correctly.
