Cookies reappear immediately after being deleted. How can these be deleted???
I have tried for the last hour by searching the internet and trying to find a way to delete cookies in Firefox to prevent them from immediately appearing within seconds after being deleted. I have deleted them at least a dozen times in the last hour and within seconds they always reappear. Is there anyway Firefox can keep the cookies from reappearing. Most of my internet searches indicate that this is a common occurrence with Firefox but no one was seems to have been successful with coming up with a way to keep these cookies from instantly reappearing once they were deleted. Anything you could do to help me remove these cookies stored on Firefox so they don't reappear within seconds would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You may have installed an extension like DoNotTrackMe (Do Not Track Plus) that maintains a set of OPT-OUT cookies if you can't remove some cookies permanently.
- DoNotTrackMe: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/donottrackplus/
In that case you need to uninstall the extension to remove those opt-out cookies.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

If clearing cookies doesn't work then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
