Jerome - most Web browsers have a maximum limit to the amount
of cookie data that they will preserve from a given site 
(usually around 4k as I recall, though this may vary from 
browser to browser). If you have a lot of cookies from this 
site already, your browser may be silently truncating the 
cookie data sent. You could check this by looking at the 
length of the data you get from manage_cutObjects as 
cb_copy_data.

Hope this helps!
