I think what you need happens in sesson.inc

function sess_read($key) {
 ...
  $user = db_fetch_object(db_query("SELECT u.*, s.* FROM {users} u INNER JOIN {sessions} s ON u.uid = s.uid WHERE s.sid = '%s'", $key));

  // We found the client's session record and they are an authenticated user
  if ($user && $user->uid > 0) {
    // user logged in via cookie

Not sure if there is a way to do that via a hook.

Perhaps extending hook_user to do that is a good idea.

hi,
is there a way for intercept a user when login via cookie?

For example, when a user login with a form (no cookie stored) is
possible to intercept them with hook user:

function hook_user($type, &$edit, &$user, $category = FALSE) {
        if ($type == 'login') {

Thanks a lot
