I'm not an expert, but cookies are used to store information about you on your own computer. Like the first time you go into Amazon, it put sa cookie on your computer, The next time you go in, it looks for your cookie and says hello Terry w/o my saying who I am. I also have some stock sites, where I can bring up info on my portfolio. It stores this customizing in a cookie so that when I go in, it brings up my customized page. You can turn on a switch so that you see the cookies as they are stored. They're everywhere. That's about all I know. Not sure what a "magic cookie" is.
