Hi, Google is now serving ads for other Web sites. These Google ads typically appear as text links on a Web page for products related to the content of the page. Google has created a new domain, googlesyndication.com, for serving these text link ads inside of IFRAMEs. Google is attempting to set a cookie for this domain, but in my experiments, they are using the standard google.com domain name in the Set-Cookie HTTP response header. I believe this is a bug. Here's an example: C:\>geturl http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com HTTP/1.0 200 OK Cache-control: private Content-Type: text/html Set-Cookie: PREF=ID=43229c4f74f9288f:TM=1065889171:LM=1065889171:S=l68-x3buIwBBl 3rF; expires=Sun, 17-Jan-2038 19:14:07 GMT; path=/; domain=.google.com Server: GWS/2.1 Content-length: 2690 Date: Sat, 11 Oct 2003 16:19:31 GMT Connection: Keep-Alive Richard M.
