Internet explorer 6 privacy feature
Q: Suppose a user's default privacy preference is set to 'Medium' when our site sets a cookie. Our compact policy is acceptable under the 'Medium' setting, but not the 'Medium High' setting. Will our cookie still be replayed if the user changes their privacy preference setting to 'Medium High'?
Answer: Yes. Unless the privacy preference is set to "Block All Cookies," changing the privacy preference setting in Internet Explorer 6 does not affect the cookie acceptance policy for cookies that are already set. However, when a user's privacy preference is set to 'Block All Cookies', then cookie operations are disallowed without exception
