In have listed a short list of sites from which I want Firefox to block cookies (doubleclick, e.g.) , following the instructions on https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Enabling%20and%20disabling%20cookies. However, when I close the browser, the next time I open it, the list is blank. Naturally, I get the cookies from the sites that I want to block.

Make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the Site Preferences when you close Firefox.

Thank you very much. Worked like a charm. Also, I don't use the "clear recent history" when I close Firefox. But I do have my privacy setting set to delete history (with cookies as well) on closing. Thanks again.
