"Don't allow sites that set removed cookies to set future cookies"
I'm having a problem shopping and/or logging onto esteelauder.com (a site I have shopped from for years). Their tech folks indicated the problem appears to be with cookies and I should make sure that "Don't allow sites that set removed cookies to set future cookies" is not marked. I cannot find this in FF 3.6.15. I have removed all cookies related to this web site, but the problem still exists. I went to another computer to make sure it was not the web site, and was able to add items to the cart and log on with no problem. I am using a PC with Windows 7. This problem has just shown up in the last couple of weeks and so far only appears to be on this web site.

- You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
- Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
- In Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode all cookies are session cookies that expire if that session is ended, so websites won't remember you.
- Do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and password exceptions.
If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
Cor-el, Thanks for the suggestions and clear instructions. I'm not too savvy on anything other than routine computer usage. I tried all of your suggestions, however, the problem is still there. Oh yeah, I do a lot of on-line shopping, and so far this is the only site I have come across where this problem has cropped up.

Did you check the Cookie exceptions?
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"
Yep. I've "removed" it; "allowed" it; "blocked" it. None of these worked. I also restarted FF after each change.
