My only gripe about that procedure (which I use for that same purpose) is that it deletes all the cookies whether I tell it to do so or not. The result is that when I log into my bank on-line, they go through the "we will send you a security code" verification procedure because it can't find the now-deleted cookie.  I guess that we can't have everything.....
