Thanks EE,

The disadvantage of this method is that I actually don't mind cookies and 
have nothing to be afraid of from them. I often find them useful and would 
have to add every site I want to allow cookies from. The only reasons I 
delete cookies to for regular clearing out and freeing up HD space.
