Some info: The user having issues with YahooJSON that I've been having a 
discussion with tried the simple curl command. Just *one* cookie is 
returned from https://login.yahoo.com/. I've tried it on 5 different 
systems in 3 different places (work, home, a FreeBSD server in NYC I 
have access to) and curl returns 4 cookies.

The user having an issue is in Europe, I believe Spain. Maybe this is a 
geo based issue? Just guessing.

On a side note about the "-I/--head" option to curl. It doesn't happen 
often but some websites disallow the HEAD fetch method. Which is why I 
default to using "-i/--include".

On a better note (I won't say good), I have identified how to get the 
YahooWeb and Fool modules to work. Notes are added to the issues 
(https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/issues/379 and 
https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/issues/377) if someone 
wants to work on pull requests to address those before I get a chance to.

Thank you.
