6. Security Considerations
Cookies are NOT Viruses! They use plain text formats. They are not made up of parts of code so they cannot be executed or can auto-run. Consequently, they cannot duplicate or replicate on other networks to run or replicate again. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.
