Stanimir, Well it appears the search is no longer a search for all cookies that are assigned to a subdomain, but only creates a filter in the Domain list, and subdomains cannot be filtered. The reason you can not produce this is that you are clicking on the localhost that is returned from the filtered list, whereas I WAS NOT, since the old SM would automatically returned the list of cookies. The SM 2.0.14 search was a search for all the cookies for the site entered in the search window, including subdomains and did not create a filter list on which you have to then click in order to see the list of cookies. Sounds like the developers need to automate the display of the cookies from the filtered list being returned by the search. It would also be nice if one could continue to be able to search by subdomains, but I guess I can learn how to live with that restriction. Thanks for your help. I would never have figured out that I needed to click on the domain in the left pain in order to see the cookies, if you have not said you were not able to reproduced my problem. Yes, when you search for "localhost" in the old or stand-alone Cookie manager, it returns only the cookies for the localhost and no other domains. In the new SM 2.4.1, it just returns "localhost" in the left pane. One now has to click on the left pane "localhost" entry in order to view the cookies. So an additional step is required. Of course, I can no longer search for subdomains. Previously, when one entered "test.my..." the list of cookies was immediately populated as soon as I entered the 1st or 2nd character after the dot. So it does work but requires additional steps Stanimir, thanks again for taking the time to help me work my way through this issue.
