>>After doing some research the last few days about how Internet
>>Explorer 6 is going to restrict and block some websites (without

>>P3P compliant site.

It depends on what the user sets the site to do. I'm currently running IE 6
Beta, and i get a small eye with a red line through it, which blocks the
site from leaving cookies on your own computer. If IE6 cannot find the
privacy policy (probably in the directory you have stated) it will block
third party cookies (say the advertiser) that don't have a compact priv
policy, 3rd and 1st party cookies that use personally identifiable
information without implicit consent.(not the site) on the default setting.

if a user is totally paranoid, they can set it to block all cookies, and the
computer will recieve none, and none can be read that you already have on
the HDD. Even at the top setting it does not block any website at all, and
only shows a small icon (you know the padlock size on the bottom status bar.

If they are in the right place, they might not need to be implemented into
the html, and ie6 may already recognise them.. if you want drop me an off
list mail with the url, and i can check the output of what my ie says..
