1. Firefox 4.0 doesn't use cookies.txt any longer, it uses cookies.sqlite.

2. This doesn't look like the correct file path to the Profile folder, and Firefox hasn't used .slt in the Profile name since like 2004.
C:\Users\Lucas\AppData\Roaming\MozillaControl\profiles\MozillaControl\dmurprso.slt

The file path should be something like this - C:\Users\Lucas\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\dmurprso.default
