this is only happening in mozilla when i clear my temp files it says i cant get in to e-mail because the browser doesnt accept cookies. so i go to options and make sure it accepts cookies. then i try to get into my e-mail it says it cant because the browser is set to not accept cookies... whywhywhy?

There might be an exception list:

  1. Put this in a new window url: about:preferences#security
  2. Click on Exceptions and make sure the list reflects what the browser should ignore the selected option.

Does this help?

Can you clarify what and how you are deleting personal data via "when i clear my temp files".

Is this with built-in Firefox means?
