My homepage, my.yahoo.com, is "allowed" in "security"/"exceptions", but when I open Firefox, I always have to sign in again. How do I fix this?

I have my security settings set so that I accept cookies, but that cookies and history are erased when I close Firefox. I want to keep my homepage, (my.yahoo.com) from closing, so in security settings/exceptions, I added this to "allowed". When I close Firefox, I've set it to erase history, active logins and cache. (not cookies). But every time I start up the browser, I have to sign in again to my.yahoo. I'd like to have "my.yahoo" be ALLOWED, and not have to sign in each time. Thanks!
