I think,
You send a request
This request is bound to come from some IP
whosthere : constant String := mix(now, ip);
store(server, whosthere);
answer the request either
- redirecting to http://server/requested/whosthere/the.real.thing
- make navigation accessible through forms only, using
  "http://server//personalised.cgi?who=" & whosthere & "&amp;link=requested"
  as ACTION value or use whosthere as a HIDDED parameter value

Some time ago, European court decided that Cookies should not be
allowed, but SPAM should as long as the sender can be idetified. (Oh,
well...) I think coding a URL is considered the appropriate replacement
technique for cookies. Apple's WebObject does similar things, afaik.
