Yeah, what's more. I don't see the point of all this... This whole P3P
is based purely on self-declaration and therefore in my opinion not of
much use as far as I have understood the concept in the fairly short
amount of time I was willing to spend on this ;)

I tested again and surprisingly it seems that IE indeed is blocking the
cookies with or without this header. Nevertheless, IE seems in some
cases to preselect the right entry in the drop down list even if cookies
are blocked (I haven't checked if it really doesn't send them but at
least IE says it blocked the cookie... and I wouldn't dare not to trust
Microsoft, would I :) ? ). This even is the case across restarts of IE...
So, I assumed it could have to do something with IE remembering entries
from some drop down lists provided name/id of the form/select element.
However, this also didn't turn out to be the case because renaming form
and select element didn have any effect either. So, right now I don't
really know why it seems to unless I delete the cookies in the temp
folder and do a restart.
