I am pretty new to cookies and am having an issue. I create a cookie in my servlet and write it to the response to last the lifetime of the session (duration = -1). When the user clicks the logout button I find the cookie, reset the duration to 0 then re- add the cookie to the response. But when I look at the browser cookies the cookie is still there and is listed as a cookie lasting the lifetime of the session. From what I read in the API there is nothing to directly remove a cookie from a session, I can only write it with a duration of 0. So, why is the cookie still in the session? How can I get rid of it?

Did you make sure the cookie you reset is using the correct path? The path has to match, not only the domain.
