clearing cookies
I asked this some time ago. "Does clearing cookies in Firefox delete usernames and passwords". The answer i got was no, only if i have a remember me. I`ve tried this again without the remember me box ticked on some sites but it does delete the usernames and passwords. Any further information please?

The purpose of the cookies option in clear recent history is to clear all cookies and discarding the exceptions.
You usually set a specific time frame like the last hour in case there are problems that can't be solved easily otherwise.
What do you mean with: I have to keep signing in to Firefox
Firefox would only show a dialog to enter the Master Password when starting if access to passwords is needed. Sync and opening web pages with a login form and you have stored a name and password can cause this.

Yes, any removal of involved cookies, either via built-in Firefox means or by using external (cleanup) programs, will make websites forget about you and you will have to log in once again.
Another to be aware of. Cheers
