I often get profiles bloated out with stale cookies. The Citrix User
Profile Management tool can actually scan your index.dat file at logoff and
remove references to stale cookies, before mirroring the folder to ensure
consistency (see this article
http://blogs.citrix.com/2011/01/25/notes-on-synchronising-internet-explorer-cookies-using-profile-management/
for
an explanation of the process)

Now, I'm not using Citrix UPM at the moment, and I want to replicate this
process if at all possible. The folder mirroring I can handle easy enough -
however, is there a way to scan the index.dat file for stale cookie entries
and trim them that anyone knows of? Scripts or programs will do nicely -
anyone know if there is a way to do this? I was hoping the file would be a
nice simple text file and I could just scan and manipulate it - no such
luck however. I can't seem to find anything by Googling, just wondering how
the UPM tool manages to do it.

Cheers,
