Local fix

Problem summary

  • The issue occurs because the cookie that holds the avatar
    information (AvatarKey) is not properly cleared.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix that correctly sets the path of the cookie to be deleted,
    therefore removing the AvatarKey value when the user does not
    have a custom avatar image, will be included in a future release
     of IBM Business Automation Worfklow.
