In the prior version of Firefox I could view and delete all cookies by going to Tools, Options, then security. You have changed this process in version 4 and I am not clear on the process.

I now go into clear recent history to delete cookies, but I do not see them or know what I am deleting.

Under "Page Info" "View cookies" I can see some cookies but am not able to "Delete all cookies".

How do I see all cookies and clear all cookies?
