Want to delete cookies addon from computer as it is driving me mad.
Just added latest cookie control offered by firefox and I want to get rid of it because it conflicts with other security on computer. How do I do this?
Tried to use my email address as user name and I was amazed by the response, presumably because it has the word "v i r g i n" in it. I did not intend to insult anyone it is my email address!

Hello,
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache. Note: This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:
- Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
- Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
- Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
- From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
- Now click the Clear now button.
Further information can be found in the Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.
You can manage add-ons using the following page:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
I'm pretty sure your cookie-related add-on would be in the Extensions category.
As for the username issue, hmmm, you're probably better off because your username is public here.
