Setting cookies for firefox from C

[svero]

I set cookies for ie from c using the wininet code for some affiliate id stuff. I want to make it work with firefox as well. Does anyone know how I'd do that or have a link to a site with some example code?

is that feature of IE or security hole?

A bit from column A and a bit from column B.

Using a url file and embedding the affiliate into it should be the best (100% compatible) option.

Eg:
[InternetShortcut]
URL=http://www.domain.tld/affiliate_here/game

Hrmmmm... stupid firefox... Well the URL file thing is a nightmare, but it's looking like I might have to do something along those lines. What a load of crap. Can't you people just use IE like normal folk? stupid slash dotting.. tabbed browsing.. linux using trouble making... grr...

Well, just adding the affiliate to url files and links of those in-game buttons is surely less painful than fiddling around with cookies of different browsers (especially if their inner workings can and will change from version to version).

Yeah.. I made the incorrect assumption that cookies were handled in some standard way through windows. The reason I went down that path in the first place though was because there were certain URLS i couldn't easily modify on the fly that I didn't want to lose.. buy ah well.. its a moot point. Doesn't work.

Since your tracking system is based on cookies, couldn't Google Analytics be of some help?
