Though I normally run Firefox on private mode, and do accept cookies but never from third parties, I seem to have somehow ended up with a virus or something that automatically changes these settings every time I use Firefox. No matter how often I uncheck the box next to 'accept third party cookies' and click 'okay' the next time I go into the privacy setting box it will be checked again. How do I fix this???
