Trying to block cookies from a certain site?

I am trying to block cookies from a certain site, in this case criteo.com, which seems to be causing banner ads that mess with the visual of my netflix and facebook accounts because of their size. I tried following directions on the criteo site, but the blocking is not working!

Is there a way to have Firefox keep cookies from only certain sites?

I want to allow Firefox to retain cookies from only certain sites. Is there a way to do this? My understanding is that it is much riskier from a security standpoint to allow cookies to remain in the browser continually. So I have it set to remove them when Firefox closes. But there are a couple of sites I trust and it would make things a lot better if I could keep their cookies.

I'm not aware of such an add-on, but it might exist. There also might be a Greasemonkey userscript that will load the pages and fire the save.
This thread discusses way to save pages once you have them loaded: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/923234 How to save a website using firefox. | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].

Block cookies from specified site?

If I want to block all cookies from a given site in Safari, but not others, how do I do that?
I want a Cookie Blacklist method.

I have two Apps for cookie management. Cookie, (by sweetpproductions) is the easiest to use, I select favorites, then delete everything else manually or on a schedule I choose. Cookie is available on the AppleStore for about $15. It also cleans Flash and Silverlight cookies, along with those database tables that many sites use to store data about me (for their use) on my computer. If I checked Facebook every 15 minutes, I'd probably select FB as a favorite, but I don't need to let sites I visit once store a database on my hard-drive. Cookie gets rid of them, and it works with the common browsers, including Safari.
Little Snitch is an App that lets me build a cookie blacklist for all Internet connections (including Safari). I think Little Snitch is moderately hard to set up, and it can be very frustrating to train (training & notifications can be turned off). I have to admit, I haven't read the instructions like I should, but I have created permanent "accept" and "block" rules for many Ad and tracker cookies. I can save any new rule as temporary, and apply a rule to one browser or to all connections (like mail). I can search for a specific rule to delete or change. I can also back up my rules. Couldn't find this App in the App store but it's been around for a while and has good reviews from users at MacUpdate, Regularly costs about $35 www.obdev.at. I'm still looking for a tool that is easier and as effective.

How do I get my browser to accept cookies from third party sites

how do I get my browser to accept cookies from third party sites. I tried going into safari/preferences/security/accept cookies always. and it still will not work

Use Firefox.

Why do I get the message that my browser is trying to block me from logging out of a website properly and to close my browser?

When I log into my online banking and then log out, I get a pop-up message that says my browser is trying to block me from logging out properly and recommends closing my browser to maintain security. This does not happen on any other website I log into.

Windows 7, Firefox 4.0. I have the exact same problem. Those solutions had no effect, I still get the error message described by OP.
And I also get "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" as well as when I look at this page
http://www.wbir.com/weather/radar/local/default.aspx
I get "Firefox has prevented this page from automatically reloading"
I know of tools/options/general/accessibility/warn me when..., but I don't want to turn that off for all sites. Is there a way to whitelist trusted sites so only those sites will be allowed to automatically reload and redirect?

Block cookies from one website

Is it possible in Safari to block cookies from just one website, or is it all or nothing at all?

HI,
Might try one of the Cookie control plugins here: http://www.pure-mac.com/neten.html
Make sure the plugin is Leopard 10.5.8 and Safari 4 compatible.

I can't find a way to block cookies from the Bank of America website. Is there a way to still do this?

Previously, when accessing the Bank of America Online Banking website I could keep them from placing cookies on my machine. Following your online instructions I can only deal with history. How can I block cookies with the current version of Firefox running on a Mac?

I installed the add-on, and was told it was installed, but when I go to the Bank of America site I can't find an icon to toggle. If I could find it, it sounds like what I'm looking for.
However, I have gone to the Permissions list for the BofA website and with either "Allow cookies just for this session" or "Don't allow cookies" makes it impossible to get into the site.
The frustrating thing is that I can use Safari and ALL of the security boxes show up, just as they used to do with Firefox.

I accidentally blocked cookies from Hotmail and now I can't access my mail on firefox, but I can on IE

Is there any way to get access to mail again after blocking the cookies? I can get mail on Internet Explorer.

I've tried to enable cookies for my coupon site and my points and nothing is going through and I can't get to my coupons. Can you help please?

I've tried to access coupons from a site I visit often and it keeps telling me to enable cookies. From what I can tell I've done that and I've checked the history and it's on my computer, but nothing happens. Firefox is new to me and I'm not sure what to do. I don't know what to add-on, etc. I've come to Firefox because I was getting very discouraged with IE. Now, I'm beginning to wonder if I did the right thing. I really would like some help and understand your system.

There are other things that need attention:
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.

How do i permanently block pop ups for certain sites

how do i permanently block pop ups for certain sites

According to this thread > http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f65/blocking-individual-web-sites-on-safa ri-226175.html
You can use the Terminal app to block individual sites but be aware, unless you are familiar using Terminal, best to click your Apple menu (top left in your screen) then click Block Pop-Up Windows from the drop down menu instead.

Accept cookies from my web sites list only

Hi,
yet on Safari 4.0.4 I don't see an option which indeed should be very useful: "Accept coockies from my web sites custom list only". With this option I could quickly compile a list with the web sites I like to leave my info and exclude all the rest. For example, I should put on this list only web sites like facebook.com, discussion.apple.com, twitter.com because they need to store my username and password to automatically log in on the next times. I will exclude all the other web sites, which usually gather informations I don't like to share with.
It's an option about the privacy. So I presume it should be welcome by the whole Mac community.

No, Safari does not offer that, but there is an alternative that might also work for you:
I have Cookie Preferences set to 'Accept cookies only for sites I visit', but I only wish to retain cookies for the sites i regularly visit, like these forums and others.
To that end I use a small app called SafariCookies:
http://sweetpproductions.com/safaricookies/
which only works on Leopard and Snow Leopard. This adds an item in Safari Preferences whereby you can automatically delete all cookies on shutdown, except those particular 'favourite' ones you wish to retain to avoid entering your user name and password each time you visit.

WHY does "block cookies from 3rd party and advertisers" allow a FLOOD of cookies, and caches?

My next previous computer was a powerbook circa 2003, and I got it up to 10.4..and I could easily manage cookies, see what they were and who from- AND when Isaid block them it WORKED.
What the **** is going on with this bit where they offer a block 3rd arty cookies and from advertisers - chcek box, but it STOPS NOTHING?
This may be a deal breaker- can I go back to an older safari?

It's not really an issue of Safari as such, but that the web developers have found all sorts of ways - evercookies, Flash cookies, and a number of other strategies - around the normal web cookies which is all a browser's cookie management is designed to handle. Other web browsers have more sophisticated cookie management (OmniWeb had the most complete I ever came across), but none can completely manage all types of cookies. If you want more complete management, you'll need to look to third-party cookie managers. I use Cookie from Sweet P Productions and found it to do a good job of cleaning up most cookies, but nothing is completely foolproof. It's rather like the race between virus developers and those writing antivirus utilities, though of course nowhere near as consequential.
Regards.
