I have the timer set to dump cookies every ten minutes, so it's great to be able to stop the timer from the menubar icon. That way my cookies don't get dumped in the middle of an online banking session or whatever.

The problem is that I'll forget to the turn the timer back on sometimes. If there was some indication in the menu bar whether the timer was running or not, that'd help keep me from being a moron  

I'll give that a try. In general, though, Cookie doesn't seem to update reliably for me. Here's an example:

This is what the Cookie cookies window looked like:

I let it sit there on the screen for over ten minutes; it didn't change.

I quit out of Cookie and relaunched it. Suddenly it looks like this:

I think maybe I'll just trash the prefs altogether and start from scratch.

I'm looking at the cookie list in Cookie, not Safari. Or does Cookie get that list from Safari rather than from the cookie file on disk?

I have Cookie set to remove unwanted Safari data every ten minutes, and it's just not happening. Right now, I'm looking at cookies from sites I haven't visited in the last two days, let alone the last ten minutes. Anything I can do here?
