That was the first and "easy" try.

Of course there *might* be scripts running in the browser that do requests and 
pull in more cookies. Wget can't execute scripts.

To find out, you have to debug the communication between browser ans server. 
Wireshark does a good job (when using plain text).
But the Firebug extension (for Firefox) is also a good choice.
Not sure about Chrome/Chromium.
