Just thinking, Couldn't this actually be used as fraud protection..
Let's say you have some advare/spyware installed that changes refferal codes.. Now the adware overwrites the cookie with your refferal id, but the extention then overwrites the cookie changing the sale back to you..

That Imo. would be a pretty damn valid reason for overriding the cookie
