About
ScapeGoat is an application that allows you to easily/automatically delete the MagicCookie and/or Global History files created by NetScape in the Preferences Folder on your startup disk. The MagicCookie file on a Macintosh (in the NetScape Folder inside the Preferences Folder inside the System Folder) contains information ("cookies") that a web site wants to write to your hard drive. Cookies are a general mechanism which server side connections (such as CGI scripts) can use to both store and retrieve information on the client side of the connection. The Global History file (created/maintained by NetScape Navigator) keeps track of URLs you've surfed, web pages/files you've downloaded, every image you've seen, IDs/passwords you've sent, searches you've done, etc. (Ever wonder how NetScape knows what links to display as red vs. blue? This is how it knows). The ReadMe file contains information on cookies and why you may or may not want them on your system. System requirements: * Any Macintosh running NetScape Navigator * System 7.0 or later For more information, please read the Read Me file enclosed. Thanks, Jeff Hoffman Time Lever Resources I give permission for my program to be included on the Info-Mac CD-ROM.
