After I click tool, and options to go to privacy,I realized that I can't custmise cookies as it said on the "enabling and disabling cookies". On my site, when I check "accept cookies from site" in the check box,"Keep until" mark doesn't activate. Also,"clear histories when firefox closes" check box is not activated either. (it means the color of that part is like faded, so I cannot control from my site.) I wonder why I can't activate this part although your example said we supposed to be able to use these parts according to "Enabling and disabling cookies" instruction. Thank you. edit
