[X4U] Safari and cookies

[Mark Des Cotes]

I was in the middle of writing to the list in the hopes of figuring out 
why Safari took so long to load apple.com pages and why it was failing 
to load all the images. (I'd get little blue "?" instead of the 
images). I had already emptied the cache without any luck. Then I 
thought about cookies. I deleted all cookies that related to Apple and 
low and behold, Safari now loads all the apple.com pages super fast and 
with all images intact. This same problem was happening on the other 4 
macs in the office. Deleting the apple cookies solved the problem on 
all of them.

My questions are; what could cause this in the first place? and what's 
the worst that could happen if I deleted all my cookies instead of just 
the apple ones? (I've never touched the cookies before)
