"Don't allow sites that set removed cookies to set future cookies"
I'm having a problem shopping and/or logging onto esteelauder.com (a site I have shopped from for years). Their tech folks indicated the problem appears to be with cookies and I should make sure that "Don't allow sites that set removed cookies to set future cookies" is not marked. I cannot find this in FF 3.6.15. I have removed all cookies related to this web site, but the problem still exists. I went to another computer to make sure it was not the web site, and was able to add items to the cart and log on with no problem. I am using a PC with Windows 7. This problem has just shown up in the last couple of weeks and so far only appears to be on this web site.
* You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
* Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
* In [[Private Browsing]] mode all cookies are session cookies that expire if that session is ended, so websites won't remember you.
* Do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and password exceptions.

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file <i>cookies.sqlite</i> that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> and <b>cookies.txt</b>, if they exist, in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

How can i get popup blocker to keep the allowed sites that i add?
Here where I work, we have a site that opens in a popup window. I have added it to the popup exceptions list, but after a day or so, that site disappears from that allowed site list. Not sure what keeps going on. It's been doing this for a while, even on previous versions. The browser is on the most current version, 33.0, just FYI.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.Can you find a pattern to the disappearance? For example:
# Every time you exit Firefox it is cleared?
# Every time to shut down and restart Windows it is cleared?
# It is cleared on a schedule?
For #1, make sure Firefox is not set to clear too much history at shutdown.
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
If you have "Firefox will: Remember history" then there shouldn't be a problem. If you have "Firefox will: Use custom settings for history" then make sure "Clear history when Firefox closes" is NOT checked, or if it is checked, click the Settings button and make sure that Site Preferences are NOT set to be cleared.
For #2 and #3, utility, privacy and system cleaning software sometimes clean up browser settings beyond just clearing cookies. You may need to check their settings if you have one or more of these programs. -
Business Catalyst Help | Allow site visitors to disable cookies
This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/allow-site-visistors-disable-cookies.html
Hi Frank,
thanks for the question. What do you mean by "can prove"? BC allows you to enable the "Cookie Module", hence providing the users the choice to disable cookies. I've seen that you commented to this post as well: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/allow-site-visistors-disable-cookies.html.
What exactly do you mean by "proof"? From our research the current module should suffice. However, if there are other pieces of info that we might have missed, please share them with us.
Thanks,

Web limiting won't allow sites that should be OK
I have web limiting turned on and it seemed to work fine until today. Now it will not allow a site that should be allowed.
I have "targetsite" listed as an allowed site. I can go to www.targetsite.com. A link on targetsite redirects to www.targetsite.com/ContentDelivery.aspx?ca=parameter and this page is not allowed.
What else can I do to make this page available?
Peggy ThrasherThe Web Limiting feature of WMS2012 is very basic, but at least it's better than the one in WMS2011, which only worked with IE and slowed everything down. Because websites contain so many third-party content servers from Amazon, google, etc., I'm constantly
going into the source code of websites or my router's web filter to see what's missing and why only part of the website is coming up. Then I add all of those extra sites into the whitelist.
The WMS web limiting feature needs a wildcard feature and keyword feature (e.g. "ftp://*" to block all ftp sites). Perhaps even a checkmark screen for commonly blocked things like google images, ftp, etc.
It needs a global checkbox to block all traffic except for the whitelist but still respect the blacklist. That way we could also use the blacklist to fine tune the whitelist. For instance, we could whitelist google.com but then blacklist:
"*google.com/imgres?*" to prevent image URLs.
"*google.com/preferences?*" to prevent users from adjusting safe filtering
It needs a trusted site feature where it will trust all the links from a trusted site so you don't have to put a dozen extra URLs into the whitelist and hope the website doesn't switch content servers. I suppose this would be resource intensive because Microsoft
would have to look at the source code of every page or at least ones in this special trusted site section. It wouldn't be able to handle content in iframes (which are usually ads anyway), but it would be a start.
It needs a time schedule for web limiting.
It needs web limiting on a per user or per group basis, including for administrator accounts.
All of these features need to work with https traffic as well. -
Using engadget.com as an example. I have "Allow cookies from sites" set to off. Exceptions are only listed for google.com. I browse to "engadget.com". Suddenly, I have under my exceptions: "engadget.com" : "Allow". Other sites do this as well.
I've tried clearing my browser cache, the cookies.sqlite file, and got rid of all flash objects.
I didn't set it, I didn't ask the site to set it, so how did they set it? How do I stop it?Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

On Saturday, Sept. 3, I updated to Mozilla Firefox 6. I went into the Toolbar, I think to private browsing, but not sure now. I asked that all cookies be blocked. A window came up from my home page that said "Allow, Allow this session only, Deny Cookies." I said Deny and it told me 19 cookies were being blocked. I have never been able to get the window to leave the browser home page. In fact, I can not make any choice in that window. The window kind of shakes. I went for professional help and did have malware that I had not known was there that was removed. Technician worked 3 hours. It was called "PUM.Hijack.Start." The Mozilla browser is still stuck like that. I am on Internet Explorer, but I would like to have Firefox back again. What steps do I take next?
I am having a similar problem. Running Xp.
Latest revision of firefox.
After using firefox for a while if I exit, parent.lock is locked and i have to reboot to reload firefox.
I have killed all firefox applications from task manager (usually there are none). and I have tried 3 different "file unlock" programs including unlocker to no avail.
I also recently installed a program that shows -all- open files, and parent.lock is not listed, and thus not closable/unlockable from there. -
When I open email or texting I am often sent to the Web to either the Playstore to look at a new app or some site that want me to choose some singles site to chat with chick avatars. How do I remove this - what? cookie?
I will try safe mode.
I did download Ad Network Detector and opted out of JumpTap and AdMob. Today I found more: MoPub and Millenial which I will opt out of. I had previously opted out of Google Ads on the Cell phone but not on the net - so did that. Allegedly it take time for the opt outs to reach the originators of these pop ups
Thanks all for the suggestions - but not cleaned up yet.

This just started today, for no reason at all. ... I can still access Gmail using IE. Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks.
This can be caused by corrupted cookies or cookies that are blocked (check the permissions on the about:permissions page).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/fix-login-issues-on-websites-require-passwords
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
You can inspect and manage the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
*Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
*Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
*Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab
You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains on the <b>about:permissions</b> page.

Delete the permissions.sqlite file to reset all permissions. -
I am trying to login to a website and every time I go to login I get a message that says "You need cookies for this site. Please enable cookies." I've checked cookies and they're enabled, I even put that specific website on allow. I searched for information on how to correct this error and did all that it said, yet I still get this message.
I have the exact same problem! With just one website. It's when I have a second account on it. I can sign in with my original (old) account, but not with my new account that I wish to sign in on. I've talked to a lot of people members of the website who have second accounts and this doesn't happen with them, it's only with my firefox. I've done everything I can to enable cookies, 3rd party cookies, no exceptions, etc.
But it must be something to do with my computer because I did the same thing on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome and it's exactly the same. :/ -
when i ask for Authorizeed computer i got the message " make sure your computer' date is set correctly and that it accepts cookies from the itunes stores " how can i solve this problem please .
Ok, so I just worked out that itunes communicates through your browser so it's a cookie in the browser not PC direct that fixes this. Bit of a convoluted route but for me it was IE>Internet setting>privacy>sites, then allow all activity from apple.com/itunes.

I have been using Safari for years and have always kept it on "private." Starting two days ago, I suddenly found myself unable to log onto my blog and many other sites that I normally log onto when private is set. This so annoying, I just switched to Firefox. I don't like Firefox nearly as much as I like Safari. What is happening? How do I fix the problem?
Thank you.Might be a corrupted database ...
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test. -
I am trying to limit my childrens itunes usage, so I am setting up and allowance. But under the directions of Manage Allowances it says to remove credit card information that is already on the account. How do I do that?
Firefox 4, to be released next year, shouldn't store credit card numbers anymore by performing a check.

Youtube and flash games work, but other sites that use flash don't work
Hi-
I'm currently using Firefox 18.0.2 on 2 different computers (Both Win7 64 bit), both with flash 11.6.602.168. Both have roughly the same programs installed and the same browser configuration. However, on one machine, flash works only on some sites. For instance, Youtube works perfectly, as do dedicated flash games. However, sites that use embedded flash applications fail to work. For instance, if I visit www.speedtest.net, where the test options normally appear is completely blank. Similarly, other video players fail. For example, videos in www.cbsnews.com play sound, but where the video should be is just white. I've tried completely uninstalling both firefox as well as flash, and installing previous versions, nothing has worked.I guess it is a process of elimination, what is different ?
I would first of all check and experiment with Adobe FlashPlayer protected mode setting.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Flash_Player_11.3_Protected_Mode_-_Windows
Also have you any filtering, adblock or security related programs installed which may block video or scripts. With you-tube check is it actually using Flash player,and not trying to use any HTML5 options so check any options and cookies. -
I'm running a program with selenium and it was working fine, then I updated to firefox version 22 and now its throwing my error saying 3rd party cookies need to be enabled. Is there a line of code I can add to prefs.js in order to ensure that 3rd party cookies are enabled?
Note that current Firefox releases have a new setting to accept third-party cookie from sites that you have visited before.
*Always : network.cookie.cookieBehavior = 0
*Never : network.cookie.cookieBehavior = 1
*Visited: network.cookie.cookieBehavior = 3
*Block all cookies: network.cookie.cookieBehavior = 2 -
I have a web site that I subscribe to and when I pulled it up Firefox asked me if I wanted to allow it or not. Accidently I pressed never allow for this site. Opps . . How do I undo this? I tried restarting and am now stuck as I can not access my website
Do you mean saving a password?
If you clicked "Never" then you have created an exception that you need to remove.
Remove site(s) from the Exceptions:
* Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Exceptions
