[pubcookie-users] IIS 6 multiple hosts problem?

We've received a couple of similar problem reports here and I 
believe we tracked this to a bug in WebVarLocation in the 3.1.1 
filter.

To fix it, you could try the latest Pubcookie.msi in CVS (found in 
src/Win32/installer). Most of what we're doing for the next filter 
release is now focused around the Win32 keyclient and the 
installer itself.
