Your cookies seem to be disabled
I have been using FireFox for ever and never had this problem. Last week it started not accepting cookies. When I go to my IGOOGLE home page I have to log in as well as other sites that I should always stay logged in to. I have checked FireFox settings and it is set to accept cookies as it should but still it won't. If I try to go to Google search settings, it displays "Your cookies seem to be disabled". The problem is not just with Google.

First go through the procedures in the Web sites say cookies are blocked article.
If you are still having problems, the file that stores cookies may be corrupt. You can test this by deleting or renaming the file that contains cookies to see if it solves your problem.
- Open the profile folder, for details of how to access that folder see the profiles article
- Close Firefox
- Rename or delete cookies.sqlite
- restart Firefox and check to see if cookies are remembered
There is also security software and Firefox extensions that can block cookies.
See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

Thanks for the replies, I will get to it once I get home.
Here's a working link to the "Websites say cookies are blocked" that doesn't try to create a new article: Websites say cookies are blocked or Websites say cookies are blocked
Think I've found a solution. What I did was 1)Enable third party cookies, set it to "ask each time" 2)close FF 3) Open FF & set Google search settings 4)FF will ask you to allow cookies - allow them 5)Change your cookies settings back, the missing cookies urls will be stored as "allowed" in the exceptions list 6)Google now remembers my search settings This worked for me, may not work for everyone
