<![CDATA[
A cookie is a name/value string pair that an HTTP server sends to a client in a response header.
A web browser client typically remembers cookies, and replays them to the server in each subsequent request until their expiry.
A cookie allows a server to know whether it's talking to the same client.
By default, HttpWebRequest ignores any cookies received from the server.
To accept cookies, create a CookieContainer object and assign it to the WebRequest.
The cookies received in a response can then be enumerated.

using System.Text;
class ThreadTest
{
static void Main()
{
var cc = new CookieContainer();
var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com");
request.Proxy = null;
request.CookieContainer = cc;
using (var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse())
{
foreach (Cookie c in response.Cookies)
{
Console.WriteLine(" Name: " + c.Name);
Console.WriteLine(" Value: " + c.Value);
Console.WriteLine(" Path: " + c.Path);
Console.WriteLine(" Domain: " + c.Domain);
}
}
}
}
The output:
