If I remove perlmonks from my list of 'restricted sites' in MSIE (it's in there only to disable JavaScript), I get a dialog box that shows the value of my perlmonks cookie, and warns me that it could just as easily have been stored somewhere, and my account stolen.
Looking at the source, his picture of a jelly donut has an onload handler that pops up the alert box.
Is your browser set to disable JavaScript at some level? I wonder if it's a browser-specific issue. I'll check a few others and post an update to my original node above with findings.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
