Um, not really:
"Triple Sec Orange in flavor, Cointreau is a specific brand of Premuium Triple Sec. Getting their flavor from Curacao Oranges, Triple Sec is also referred to as White (clear) Curacao."
from this <a href="http://www.drinkoftheweek.com/blogs/2004_02_01_question_archive.html" target="_blank">site</a>.
And:
"Triple Sec, Orange Curaco, Grand Mariner, and Cointreau are all orange flavored liquors, and are often interchanged for one another depending on the cost conciensness of the bars proprietor."
