J2EE Checked - but still have CFID & CFTOKEN Cookies?

Hello all, I am trying to work through this PCI thing and I have everyting set properly per Adobe - but I am still getting a fail because of prediciptable cookies. Here is what I am confused about: This article (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404762.html) says that J2EE replaces CF_ID and CF_TOKEN - but my server is generating a CFID and CFTOKEN (No Underscores) anyway? With J2EE checked, why are these cookies even being set? How do I get rid of them - they are why my PCI is failing?

      Add this.setClientCookies="false" to your Application.cfc or srtClientCookies="false" to you <cfapplication> to tell ColdFusion not to set those cookies.

      NOTE: I hope you are not using client variables.

        Will that terminate the ability to use "ANY" cookies? We use coockies in a verity of different way for ad tracking, subscription tracking, etc.

        Oh and NO that will not prevent you from using any cookies, it is just telling ColdFusion not to set cookies for use with the client scope, which is why those cookies are still being set.
