    I have found that dead lizards (while extremly delicious) are effective 
    in negating confusion.  Another lizard trivia:  If you kill a monster
    while you are confused (not an easy task) the corpse (if there is one)
    will turn into a dead lizard.  I don't know if this is always true but
    It has worked 4 times in a row for me.  

    As for your cocatrice problem, try eating an acid blob (preferably fresh).
    This should negate the stoning effects of the cockatrice.

    Good Luck...     These hints assume you are playing version 1.03.
