Cookies in Windows 7

In windows 7 Microsoft helpfully opted to stash cookies in a bit of an out-the-way location which can make hunting them all down rather tricky. The best places to look are as follows:

Quick Access
Type shell:cookies into start/search and hit Enter

File Path Approach
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies

You'll need to enable 'view hidden folders' in the Control Panel in order to access the AppData folder.
