I mistakenly blocked my ATT Yahoo email page in Firefox. After logging in, the page will not load. How do I unblock the page?

I mistakenly blocked my personal email page. I had opened View Page Info (when the page was loaded) and it gave an option to block. Once I log into my ATT Yahoo email account, the url seems to stay in a continuous loop and the email page will not open. I can't find the option to unblock the page.

Which permission did you change?

You can manage all permissions on the about:permissions page.

You can open about: pages via the location bar like you open a website.

Sorry, I'm not following. I see the permissions options by opening View Page Info for a webpage, but that was not where I saw the choice to block the url. I can't recall how I accessed the option to do so. Since I can't get to the webpage that's blocked, I can't open the Permissions to change anything. If you are referring to another location, please provide instructions on how to get to it in Firefox 7.0.1. By the way, I can't get to the log in page via the mail icon today. Thanks.

You can manage the permissions for all sites if you type or paste about:permissions in the location bar. That is a new page available in Firefox 7 that allows to mange the permissions. You see a selection bar at the left that shows all sites from which the permissions are stored.

Thank you! Your explanation was perfect and I found the Permissions Manager page as you described. There were several sites associated with my email account. I found the one where I had blocked cookies. Once I set it to allow cookies, the site popped right up. Thanks again.
