This would only work if all the domains have an ending containing 2 dots 
matching the host setting it - eg. www.yoursite.com can set cookies for 
something.yoursite.com and another.yoursite.com, but not for 
www.microsoft.com.  Imagine if your favourite warez site set a cookie 
with domain microsoft.com...

Of course, this rule was invented by short-sighted inhabitants of 
.com/net/org, so when .co.uk came along it became a bit worthless but 
nobody's ever decided to fix it.
