Have you tested the command-line tools at all?  Try using query-pr,
for example, to see if GNATS access controls are set up correctly.
The cookie error is distracting you from what the real issue may be.

maxthon?  Interesting.  Javascript support, not Java, only allows
gnatsweb to determine IF you accept cookies.  Browsers do not need
javascript to utilize cookies, so the error isn't really an error in
this case.  If cookies are enabled, then you're golden.
