Third-party cookies

I Remove Cookies and add their senders to the Exceptions - Cookies list. However, the removed cookies instantly re-appear on the Cookies list. Examples: 2o7.net, adbrite.com. Cookies immediately reappear on Cookies list even when deleted while cable modem is disconnected. FF 3.6.13 on Mac OS 10.5.8.

Do you have the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/targeted-advertising-cookie-op/ Targeted Advertising Cookie Opt-Out (TACO)] extension? That one will automatically add permanent, generic, non personally identifiable cookies to the browser. Even if you delete one the add-on will replace it.

I am having trouble enabling cookies. My bank requires my computer to be registered. I have privacy settings to receive third party cookies but I am still being asked to register my computer. The Bank tells me it is a problem with my internet provider.

I need to log in to my bank on line and they tell me I need to register my computer. I have gone to Tools, Options, Privacy, I selected "accept cookies from sites" and "accept third party cookies. What else do I need to do. I have Mozilla Firefox 3.x (PC)

Aha! I have sorted it.
For those with similar problems, the solution is this:

How do I enable third party cookies in Firefox 5

I keep getting the message telling me to enable third party cookies. The instructions for how to do so tell me to choose the options feature from the tools drop down menu, then to click on "privacy" and check a certain box that would enable cookies.
This check box is not on the privacy menu. What do I do?

Using the Menu Bar:
*press the ALT or F10 key to get the Menu Bar to '''''temporarily''''' appear
*with your mouse make the selection Tools > Options > Privacy
Using the Firefox button (Firefox 4 & 5):
*click the Firefox button > Options > Options > Privacy
To see the third-party cookies option, at the top of the Privacy panel set "Firefox will" to "Use custom settings for history"

Third-party cookies: Should I be concerned that I am forced to accept in order to access a site, if I delete them after every Firefox session?

Friday 16 August, 2012
My internet service provider (https://my.gci.net/) blocks my entry to eMailGuard (a GCI spam and virus isolator) when I have third-party cookies disabled
When I allow third-party cookies I am able to access eMailGuard. I have used GCI eMailGuard and Firefox together for years and have had no such difficulty in the past.
This problem commenced 2-3 weeks ago.
I have followed all directions at http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/websites-say-cookies-are-blocked-unblock-them to clear all cookies and cache, with no change. Also, my default setting (see below) is to “Clear history when Firefox closes.” If I understand correctly, clearing history will also clear cookies and cache, so I do it every time I close Firefox.
Has Firefox changed third-party cookies parameters recently? GCI of course claims this is a browser issue. Should I be concerned about third-party cookies if I delete them after every Firefox session? Any comments or thoughts are greatly appreciated.
My current version is Firefox v.14.0.1
My Privacy settings are:
• Tools\Options\Privacy
• Use custom settings for history
My selected (checked) custom settings are as follows:
• Remember my browsing history
• Remember download history
• Remember search and form history
• Accept cookies from sites (third-party cookies not selected)
• Keep until: I close Firefox
• Clear history when Firefox closes

''Keep until: I close Firefox''
That's what I use for all cookies. If you start a new session every time you start Firefox, i.e., you don't resume the same session over and over, websites cannot track you 'across sessions' using cookies; you are a new person to them during each session (unless/until you log in).
Note that "Flash cookies" need to be managed separately.
As for this particular site, if you want to spend some time research it, you could install an add-on such as Firebug or the external Fiddler2 proxy. Both will show you each request made by the browser when you load a page. Then you can see which third party sites are involved and if you like make a specific entry to allow them in the Exceptions dialog.

* http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/ (more difficult to use for HTTPS sessions)

Demo, I just did some reseach on this question and while one an set iPad to accept cookies, from what I read, it doesn't work for 3rd party cookies. Maybe I'm not getting it though, which is certainly possible..

In Windows XP I have lost control over third party cookies

I bought a refurbished computer with Windows XP. But now I have noticed there is no control over cookies in Firefox. In Windows Vista there was 'block third party cookies' there was 'state which websites to permanently block' or 'allow' and even then I was only using Firefox... Now there is nothing. On top of that none of the "cookies control" add-ons for Firefox seem to be any good at all. I don't know what to do!
Why would Firefox change with Windows XP?? I can see with IE of course but Windows operating system has nothing to do with Firefox, if you know what I mean.

Enabling third party cookies on Flash Player 10 when I can't find it

I can't seem to find the flash player on my laptop so I can enable third party cookies. I have a Dell Inspiron and Windows 7. Anyone have any clue?

Thanks for the reply.
So there isn't a Player Settings Manager? I'm trying to find out how to access it. Wait.... nevermind. I guess I should actually READ the instructions.

Third party cookies in Safari

Safari's been acting a little funky since the last update Version 5.1 (6534.50), so I've been checking on different settings. I have Safari set to block third-party cookies, pop-ups, etc.. and I set it to Private Browsing. Yet when I checked on the cookies that were stored, there were 67 different tracking cookies and 65 of them were third-party/advertisers. (This was after deleting all cookies previously so was just from visiting maybe a dozen primary sites, never clicking on any ads or links).
So what's Safari's problem with this? Why doesn't Safari actually do what it says it's doing?
Thanks for any insight.

Safari and cookies management needs improvement as noted from the ASC forum search for Safari / Cookies here.
What I'm trying to say is that you would have better luck managing cookies in another browser.

pirihi,
open Safari’s Preferences, and select its Privacy tab. For the “Block cookies and other website data” set of radio buttons, select “Never”.

Third party cookie block on Internet Explorer

I blocked third-party cookie access on IE, now every time I try to open IE, a window pops up asking to allow or block. Regardless which choice I make or how many times, it will not go away. I can not access the tools to change it with the cookie window open, and I can not close the cookie window. Help!

Hello wendy1960,
Since you are unable to access the menus in Internet Explorer it can be a little tricky. Microsoft does have a tool available that allows end users to do a lot of fixes on their computers, there is even one that is specifically designed to reset internet explorer to the default settings.
Try running the tool to see if it helps resolve your issue. You can find it on this page

Third Party Cookies and Safari's handling thereof...

So now that I'm having to use Safari, I'm getting all my regular sites set up, and when I attempt to access my credit union's "bill pay" feature, it won't work because I have the setting set to block cookies "From third parties and advertisers". The only other options are "Always" and "Never".
Is there no "Exceptions LIst" where you can tell it to accept cookies from specific "thirdy parties" (such as the "Bill Pay" service my credit union uses)?
Isn't there a way to get Safari to "ask" if you want it to accept cookies? That's what I was used to with Firefox. It would ask for each website and if I wanted it, I'd click yes.
Doesn't Safari have anything similar?

Downloaded and installed it, but it doesn't seem to have any affect on the "third party cookies" problem. I go to the "bill pay" section of the credit union website and it just shows a blank page.
So do I have to set Safari to "ALWAYS" accept third party cookies no matter what, and then use this other program to delete the hundreds that will be accepted that I don't want? That seems very cumbersome. As a long-time Mac user, I am sort of shocked at how little thought seems to have gone into cookie-handling. I would also figure someone might have written an "extension" to give more user control over how cookies are dealt with.
Safari has frustrated me greatly so far. There have been other issues as well, such as some "embedded" videos on some webpages just don't even show up,..there is nothing clickable to "make it load" or anything...just a blank spot on the page. Other webpages formats are completely screwed up by Safari...it puts text and headers in wrong places, and won't display some pages at all.

Safari third party cookies

As one of the few user who still uses hotmail, I've got a problem with Safari logging me out on live.com.
I have chosen to accept only cookies from site I navigate to, thus blocking cookies from third party websites.
Now, for logging out on live.com, it seems to be necessary to ALWAYS accept cookies, including third party cookies.
Hotmail uses cookies from passport.com, not live.com, for tracking whether you have already logged out or not.
This is quite annoying, for I can't properly log out without temporarily changing my cookies settings.
Is there any way (preferences, terminal, application, ...) to custom accept cookies?
So I can still block third party cookies, but always allow cookies from passport.com?
I know this is a standard functionality of Firefox and even IE, why is it missing in Safari?
I'm using Safari 5.1 on osX 10.7.1
Thanks in advance,
Gert Milis

Why am I getting redirected to the MSN homepage (when logging out of hotmail) with third party cookies not enabled? And why are exceptions to cookies being cleared in private browsing mode?

I have the latest version of Firefox, I use Private browsing with Allow cookies but not third party cookies. Recently I have begun to be redirected to the MSN homepage after logging out of hotmail and whenever I add MSN cookies to the exceptions in cookies the list gets deleted. Can anyone tell me why, when blocking third party cookies should prevent that?

Two initial thoughts:
(1) If you look at the cookie names and content in the View Cookies dialog, are they the ordinary scramble of different names and values, or do they look like "opt-out" cookies? Some security software or add-ons may restore opt-out cookies after you clear them.
(2) If you have any extensions that make requests to those sites, it's possible they are bypassing private browsing mode, although I would hope not. Hmmm.
Unfortunately, unlike history where you can see the time that an entry was added, it is difficult to figure out when a cookie was set. But there are many cookie add-ons that might provide insight.
Alternately, you could go directly to the cookies.sqlite database using the SQLite Manager extension. This is on the nerdy side, but manageable.
(1) Install SQLite Manager from: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/
(2) The extension adds an item to the Tools menu. If you do not normally use the classic menu bar, tap the Alt key to display it temporarily or press Alt+t to pull down the Tools menu.
SQLite Manager may suggest a particular database, particularly on your second and later uses. You can skip that and it will open a new window.
(3) On the toolbar (first screen shot), choose the cookies.sqlite database and click Go. This should display the database entries for all your cookies (second screen shot).
(4) Select the following SQL query text:
SELECT host AS Site, datetime(creationTime/1000000,'unixepoch') AS Created, datetime(expiry,'unixepoch') AS Expires
FROM moz_cookies
ORDER BY creationTime, host
(5) Click the Execute SQL tab, paste the query, then click Run SQL. You should get a list of sites in order by the date their cookies were set (third screen shot).
Are the dates all fresh? If they are older, something may be rolling back your cookie clearing.
