I use Logmein.com a lot to communicate with my office computer. I also have cookies set to ask me every time. Every time I want to log in to my office computer i receive a request to allow a cookie for the website which looks like this:

ihs-officepc-qhtpieiuip.app04-15.logmein.com

The problem is that every time the part of the url after ihs-officepc-............................................ is different. So I can not simply allow the site to set cookies, I have to answer the question every time.

Is there a way to set the domain to allow or to use wildcards to set up an allow situation that will recognize that I wish to allow cookies from this connection without having to answer the question every time?

You would have to set an allow exception for the top level domain (logmein.com) to make this work. Note that you can get a lot of such request if you elect the 'ask me' setting to allow/block cookies.
