      Oh, sorry.
      In case you are using netscape (the other browsers might be different) you should find a file called 'cookies' somewhere in your system. On unix, it is in ~/.netscape/cookies.

      After you find this file, you can just erase the lines that you don't like. Either with a text editor or with perl.

      If you are the original poster, perhaps you can provide us with some more information about your question:
      • Is this a CGI question? Are you wanting a CGI script to clear cookies that it has set in the past? Are you wanting a CGI script to clear cookies set by other areas of your web site?
      • Is this a Windows question? Are you wanting to clear a set of cookies in Internet Explorer? Netscape?
      • Is this a Unix question? Are you wanting to clear a set of cookies out of Netscape or another browser?
      Give us more information.
