No i dont mean that.

When a user hits my link on another website, for exmaple they are on 
ypsilandio.gr and they hit the link of superhost.gr then a new entry 
with a new cookie is appearing into my visitors table!

Where is the old cookie that was saved in my browser so it will get 
retrieved? I use chrome and i notice that when a visitor comes to my 
webpage form a referrer link the cookie's ID is always set to a new 
random value.

I have no idea why.
Why would it metter from where you sre coming from?
The cookie ust have beeen present in the visitor's browser, shouldnt it?

What is now proved was at first only imagined! & WebHost
